Regarding “irreparable damage”, I’ve started only one company; and it failed. But on the contrary the experience has improved my skills, career and job prospects.
Actually, a future investor even asked “how do we know you aren’t doing this just to bolster your career?”

I think most startups fail. I can't imagine rejecting a candidate because they took a swing at starting something and it didn't work out.
Isn't that what all careers are about (including theirs)? I would have told them to go pound sand.
Eh I think that was just a way of asking "How do we know you are serious about this"
