I Want to Start a Business but I Can't Quit My Job
Test It Before You Quit It

I can't quit my job. You have said it out loud, and it came out sounding like an excuse. Nobody has ever checked whether it is true. Thirty-five per cent is how much less the median person earned, ten years after leaving a wage to work for themselves. Not the failures. The middle of the pack. Then the reversal. Across fourteen years of employment records, the people who built the business while keeping the wage were about a third less likely to shut it down than the ones who jumped. The job you cannot quit is the cheapest test equipment you will ever own. Fourteen chapters, each ending in one evening's work on paper. What is really bolted to your salary. The ninety-six hours that are your whole trial. The clause at the back of your contract that cost an engineer a third of a million dollars. Every figure checked. This book might tell you to stay.
