You can swap startups with restaurants and it still holds true, not sure what the point is.



For me, there is quite a difference between investing millions or even billions in some trending startup who mainly know how to sell their crap tech idea, and investing a reasonable amount of money in a restaurant that will actually serve food to people.


Have we collectively reached Office Space ending. Developer leave to take up construction jobs because it feels more real.

Investing in a restaurant is really similiar to investing in a restaurant without the unlimited upsize most fail in both cases but only one produces unicorns.


One feeds you and drowns your sorrows for free on the way down, the other does your laundry and walks your dog as long as you keep the shackles on just a little longer.


Owners invest more than you think into restaurants to sell their crap food no one needs.
