So true. I have been working in a corporate job (finance!!) for 9 years. I often dream of saving my soul and working on/founding a startup. The appeal of building something, working for myself, etc is great. But, so is the regular paycheck and benefits.
I recently attended the Startup School in New York (18th of June). It exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this to everyone.
I thought the quality and breadth of the NY lineup was excellent. Each speaker gave honest, entertaining, and insightful talks about their experiences working with/founding startups.
On which side is the grass greener?
