Short YouTube monologue by an entrepreneur (Mark Evans DM) arguing that solopreneurship is often selfish and risky, with real consequences for families if the solo breadwinner is incapacitated. The speaker stresses mortality and the importance of being prepared for accidents or death; preparation is described as the daily motivator for the speaker.
Us, as entrepreneurs, do things over the top. That's just what we do. There's nothing noble in being a solopreneur. I think it's one of the most selfish things in the world. It's hard, it's not fun. If you're a father and you go down, your family's massively affected. If you're the breadwinner because you're solo, if you're a female, shit goes down. Same thing goes down. You get hit by a bus, you die. We all are going to die, by the way, so don't act like it's not happening. It's happening. Just a matter of when are you prepared? That's the stuff that drives me daily.
