I made this video and agree with this comment! Not everyone needs to make a billion dollar startup.

100k/y is probably enough for a lot of people too!

1-2mn is likely much more fragile source of income in a long term comparing to capital acquired from successful unicorn.

Sure, but that's a bit like saying "if you have a job, you could lose it. But if you win the lottery you're pretty much set"

It is not about level of income, but about long term sustainability, which I believe should be main goal.

Small business is fragile endeavor, comparing to both regular employment and scaling small business to larger one with higher resistance to risks.

Sure, but if stability is your goal, you're much more likely to find stability by attempting to create a small business than by attempting to create billion dollar business.

My suspicion is that a person who is constantly chasing a billion dollar business is going to have to make a lot more hops than someone chasing a more modest goal.

This is not a recommendation to avoid those billion dollar goals, just an observation on relative probabilities, and what is an appropriate target if your goal is stability.

eh. not necessarily.

What are multimillion dollar ideas?

Buy a popular franchise. McDonalds net profit is estimated around $150,000 per year. That's after any reasonable salary you are also paying yourself. Based on typical margins, that alone, in gross revenue, is > $1,000,000/year.

I want multimillion profits not revenue

many more exist IMO and biz model is much more proven

What isn't? A small chain of bars, for example.
