When I look at some startups, for instance a hard drug dealer is an entrepreneur in his own way, I ask myself some questions.
What good is this startup contributing to the society?
Do the advantages of this startup outweigh the disadvantages?
If my dad or my child was to ask me what I do for a living, will I be proud to tell them about my startup?
This brings us to the question of religiosity and it’s role in startups. Am I supposed to rush into just any startup because I feel that it will bring in loads of cash or should stop to think whether my religion or should I say my conscience approves of that startup
I think you meant morality. You don’t need religion to determine that.
2 questions proceed: Is your endeavour or business a private affair that you do not believe needs anyone moral approval as long as it is legal?
And the other: Do you care much of people’s expectation of you?
At the end of the day, no one is appointed a judge of another person’s character. If it rocks your boat, pay your bills and you can live with yourself, rock on!
