That's the thing I am pondering about. He tells me if I don't keep do a startup now the next time I do it will be like 5-10 years later. I will have kids, etc.

But I know say if I take a break of say 1-2 years I can start a new startup, whether I have a family or not. I might even do some side projects even before then and see how it goes.

I am wondering if he says that out of his self interest or for me.
