Under 9000 and Starting Up

The idea that there is ever a bad time to do a startup is ridiculous. There are horrible times to attempt an exit. During the crash would be one of them.

Now might be a bad time to do a start up that deals with sub prime mortgage backed "securities"... ;)

Seriously, though... the idea is the key, not the "time"

People have been trying to raise money for distressed debt funds since mid-2007. One of these times they could get the timing right, although investor cash might be drying up for them.

The execution is key, not necessarily the idea :). Ideas often change drastically once you get started.
