It is not a question of should I start a burger joint , it is more like should I start a burger joint OR start a bitcoin related business. I can't decide about that yet. Having a succesful bitcoin gambling website sounds like a huge dream ( I even live VERY close by to a place where I can get a legal license for it if I get too big) but also having couple of burger joints as a franchise sounds amazing too. I am thinking about the first days that are very hard and I am also thinking same days like in the middle where you do the same thing over and over again from waking up to sleep . I am thinking about the end where I am just the management and decide very little except some important issues. I evaluate all of this but there are some really hard questions that only people in the industry can help me with.
First of all , burger joint is a lot more expensive to start , if it fails , I won't go bankrupt and cry all day , I will work hard for say 5 years and pay off , I am 24 , if I start now and fail in a year thats at 30 years old I am clean sheet again which is young. Altough , I would feel heartbroken not because of the debt but because a dream is failed, if you have a passion a dream a goal and it fails , it hits you harder then any financial responsibility.
If I start a bitcoin gambling business , I am not planning on a dice game yet , I am more into pvp so I won't have to put up big amounts as of now , maybe down the line if it becomes successful then I might add something house vs player but I prefer roullette on that as well , I believe dice is getting old in bitcoin community. There are even places with live games so lets not go all the way back to satoshidice from now on. If I fail , I will close the wesbite or even sell it and lose only a bit of cash and nothing that much but I do not see myself having a billion dollars off this , if you start a burger joint and by jolly luck you hit big and everyone loves it (which is veeery rare to say the least) and have aggressive overtaking you might hit networth of 1b one day , no matter what you do , even if you are primedice, doog , satoshidice whatever whoever , you can't make 1 billion from bitcoin gambling so it has limitations.
I have to think , do I take the precautios road and select bitcoin and work my way to gambling industry eventually and if I fail I fail , I win , I can make my living eventually and have fun while doing it . Making a living amount of money and having fun while doing it is not that common OR do I select burger joint and work hard to become as rich as possible without dying from heart attack at age of 30
all kidding aside both sounds amazing. I also keep in mind that if I tell someone I have a bitcoin gambling business they will look at me like a criminal for a while
whilst if I say I own a burger joint they will think 'yeah he is fat it makes sense'
