This is exactly correct. Whats good about a startup is not living in a closet or getting to talk about how cool you are for living in a closet. That is exactly what is bad about the experience. Pretending it is good is roughly denial or some other similarly named vice.
- lutorm 10y agoWould you say the same thing about doing an Ironman, or climbing Mt Everest when you can just get helicoptered to the top? Part of the attraction of doing things like these lies in proving to yourself that you can do it, and by doing this you fortify yourself mentally for the challenges that lie ahead. Another result is that you become a "team" precisely because you have this shared experience. It's sort of like going through basic training in the military.
