I founded 3 small businesses so far, either during an economic downtime (I was unemployed) or while I was working in IB: It is a different feel and you have more control, but not every business or startup becomes a unicorn. Most businesses are just there to serve a community need and/or to make money for the owner/operator.

I would do it again but will wait out the pandemic first to see what survives.
