So what? You may just discover that your friendship isn't that strong. If it is, it will endure and grow, whether your business succeeds or fails.
I wonder why people are so afraid to put their relationships on trial. An old adage says that you should not trust a friend of yours until you have tested it.
- kristiandupont 16y agoA friendship may still be valuable even if it isn't fit for a startup.
- lelele 16y agoThat's fine. Being friends does not mean being fit to work together.
- jacquesm 16y agoYou may discover that your friendship is that strong and that you find it awfully hard to have 'the talk' with your friend and as a result your company eventually founders. Or you might find that your friendship was plenty strong but not strong enough to survive the kind of hardships that a start-up can throw at it. And a whole pile of variations on those themes. It's not nearly as simple as you make it out to be.
