Entrepreneurship may make you rich, but you’ll likely be unhappy – Jason Njoku

Co-founder and CEO of iROKOtv, one of the early video-on-demand movie platforms for Nigerian movies Jason Njoku has revealed why he won’t encourage his children to be entrepreneurs.

In a tweet he shared, the British-Nigerian start-up investor who noted that he wants his kids to be happy said he won’t encourage them to be entrepreneurs because it is “super hard”.

Jason added that though entrepreneurship may make them rich, it will cause them unhappiness.

He tweeted;

I want my kids to be happy. So definitely not encouraging this entrepreneurship path. Its super hard. It may make you rich (very unlikely) but it will more likely than not cause unhappiness. The deep kind. The kind that just grinds everything to dust. I think I need a 15km run
