I find funny because it’s accurate !
99% of entrepreneur fail , that’s literally why it’s hard and why it’s highly respected !
Remember when Tesla almost went Bankrupt ?
It’s very like because it happens almost three times... and only now after 25+ years Tesla is making a profit by selling its cars without sorcery finances...
Being an entrepreneur is hard , I love the Tesla example because even if Elon Musk had the vision and a superior engineering delivery , the company was technically a commercial failure for more than a decade.
Being a better than average engineer ( probably a LOT of HN uses ) is unfortunately not enough to become a sucessfull entrepreneur !
