Sounds like your speaking from personal experience; you nailed it.

What’s tough is that the romantic notion is I think a very necessary part of the process. Without it, it can be hard to take the leap of faith. Even if you do analyze the numbers and mitigate as much risk as you can, you still have to jump in. And, once you get going, if you’re lucky enough to make it a year, the romance keeps you going. My friends think owning a bar is the coolest thing in the world until I tell them how many times I have had to unclog the toilets…
