I founded a startup before and lost everything I had, but it helped me grow faster than anything else, I think about it as an investment in my career
What I learned is that I need to have something I understand pretty good (biz side) and know how to grow, in addition to expert co-founder(s)
I thought a lot about starting something in non-tech world, but I go back and think that I must invest my knowledge in tech and work on something that I understand and can success in
The other thing I would say is, save up some money and invest in thing other than tech. In my situation, I wanted to own a restaurant, so I build a cafe in the Rishikesh, India. That gave me a side mission in life, I became more content with my career situation and pushed me to be better and happier.
