Thank you. This was my sentiment but didn't comment on it. There are very few things in life that are only "one time only".

Build the cash reserves, get back on a stable financial ground and go ahead and try again.

Sometimes the myopic tendencies of these stories really drives the point of how self-absorbed one can get with this. Working for someone else likely means a nice office, nice chair, nice desk, nice computer and monitors and the ability to sit down for 8-9 hours a day and use your mind and likely a decent salary.

I think for the vast majority of people in the workforce that do don't software development, that's not surviving but thriving.
