Hey yall,

One of the things I worry about most about the entrepreneurial journy is having to take a risk that doesn't pan out in terms of taking on large amounts of debt to grow/scale/start your business. In your experience has this been a necessity to do in any of the businesses you have started and how did it work?

Thanks
