You could also build/buy your own office. Then there would be no landlord.

Probably not a good idea for startups whose long term success is unpredictable though.

Well, then, new landlord business if the startup fails.

Just start in a garage I'd say. It's cheap and the darkness, the damp and the oil fumes are a motivator to success.

You know, even though you're busy being a startup and all, it honestly does not take that long to clean up a garage.

But then how will you get motivated? Passion? That sounds like it takes time and effort to develop, when I need to be startup-ing!
