> Some of them took decades to get to even moderate success. 1. Was it worth it? I have moderate success, and I'm still making less than I would if employed. 2. Wouldn't it be faster if you did it with another idea/team? Pivots do some of that, but sometimes it's a structural problem.

Not sure what would be a good education on that, other than keep burning other people's money for 2-3-5 times.
