I started my first business with a team, who were also investors. However, when we encountered loss, all of the investors left me. I did not have to pay back their investments but I had to pay the business debt. I find starting a business with a team too risky

I started my current business alone, though since it's pretty much a small business, there was no need having others startup with me.

For me l would start a business all alone with the little capital that l have. With time the business would growing gradually as l increase the capital at times.

It is also what I have thought. Starting a business will be best for a sole proprietorship. For me, a partnership will make it challenging to operate a particular business.

You were very lucky the contract didn't oblige you to payback their investment. I prefer to start alone than with a team.

I don't have a business but if I do start a business, I want to start it with a team - maybe because I want teamwork and to gain experience with the other people.

I don't have a business so don't know which is risky but it looks if start business individually it is more difficult as you are not skilled in everything which is required to start a business.

For hardworking honest professionals from poorer communities, it is very difficult to find compatible team members since almost everyone exploits them.
