Speaking of restaurants. It’s a hard business.

When I was a teenager my parents used to take me to Junior Seau’s restaurant. He was a Chargers football player. It wasn’t all that great.

Poor guy ended up committing suicide. The place closed down soon after.

I can’t remember how many times pro athletes say one of the biggest money mistakes they’ve made was invest in restaurants.

Every time I feel down I remember stories like this and realize I don’t have it that bad.

Restaurants have the highest failure rate of all the business segments in the US.
