I joined a business someone started, personally invested $200k, and forwent income for a year. This is after leaving a prestigious finance job after 5-6 years in the industry and quitting a senior role at a Fintech.
Company’s sales is flat, and it’s running out of money. If this doesn’t work out, I’m a guy who quit the previous start-up (not doing very well rn) after 1 year, blew money, and joined another one that’s also not doing well.
I feel like I’m not employable and that maybe my judgment is poor. Has anyone experienced or gone through this?
Learn from it and move forward. Big part of success is how you learn from failure and have the resiliency to move forward.
It’s happen to me, big and small failures, almost on an annual basis, but got to a point that the successes and risks outweigh the failures.
Turn that fear into positive action.
