๐Ÿ”ฅ Love โ‰  Equity: A Brutal Truth for Married Co-Founders ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’ผ Bengaluru founder Anurag Singh just dropped some truth bombs ... Therapy wonโ€™t fix a broken cap table. Startups are hard. Marriages are harder. Combining both? Often explosive. Hereโ€™s the reality: โš ๏ธ 65% of startups fail due to co-founder conflict - now imagine adding marriage, kids, and EMIs to the mix. Also, only bring your partner in if you have childcare + 6 monthsโ€™ cash flow sorted. ๐ŸŽฏ Business needs clarity. Relationships need care. Mixing them can kill both. Sure, Mamaearthโ€™s founders made it. But for every 1 couple that scales, 10 break apart - emotionally and financially. ๐Ÿ‘‰ So before you hand over equity, ask: Are we building a startup or burning a marriage?
