Should Your Best Friend Be Your Startup Co-Founder

Should your best friend be your startup co-founder?

Two of my co-founders were my friends “Ken” and Adolfo. I felt that I was reducing the risk of co-founder failure because I knew Ken and Adolfo so well.

Yet, Ken didn’t work out as a co-founder and Adolfo did work out as a co-founder.

In today’s video, I’ll explain based on my experience why you shouldn’t have a friend as a co-founder, why you should have a friend as a co-founder, and, most importantly, how you should decide on who your co-founders should be.

I hope you like it.
