That's a luxury not many people have. Many can't afford 10 failures on top of a family to feed or other debt and obligations.
But they CAN get jobs (well, in theory, prevailing market conditions aside). Not everyone is supposed to be an entrepreneur, but those that try gain valuable skills they can apply elsewhere, even if it doesn't work out.
