In 2007 when i attended Ycombinator start-up school session @ Stanford, Paul graham made a very intersting comment “It’s ok to do a start-up if you don’t have have funding, idea, office….But it’s very difficult to do a start when you are married”

Here is something I would like to add to Paul’s #lbl…

Important: If you have a co-founder for your start-up, it is very important that you share the same ideas, values and goals for the start-up. Make sure you don’t compromise on any aspect of it.

Very Important: If your co-founder is married, make sure you have the buy-in from his/her family. If you don’t, then you are going to run into a lot of problems executing in situations where your start-up needs a lot of time and attention to get through the dip
