"Let me reiterate--you have a less than 50/50 chance of founding a successful startup, even if you manage to raise VC every time (which is not a forgone conclusion) and even if you devote essentially your entire professional life to it."
On the other hand, if you enjoy entrepreneurship, don't let the lack of success get to you. After all, there's always the next company!
