How realistic is it to think you can save yourself economically with a "start-up"? [View all]

[Ken Burch]

This idea seems to figure heavily in the minds of the less-wealthy Romney supporters and the teabaggers as a means of personal economic salvation(yes, that sounds Calvinist, and it derives from that most likely).

Do people here see that as a realistic option?

Also, can any of you who has tried that recently(sincere good luck to you if you're trying it now) post your stories of how it went or is going for you?
