Conversation

I went to a party over the weekend. While I was there, someone asked what I do for a living, and I explained about the startup and taking a gamble on it.

"Oh, weren't you worried about money?"

"Well, yeah, but I'm used to living on a lot less than what I currently do, so it was scary but okay. I have a safety net."

"Oh, but what about..."

And I braced myself for the inevitable question about debt.
