Yup - you cant really be a startup if it isn't your primary business activity :) Paul Graham in 18 Mistakes that Kill Startups : "Statistically, if you want to avoid failure, it would seem like the most important thing is to quit your day job. Most founders of failed startups don't quit their day jobs, and most founders of successful ones do. If startup failure were a disease, the CDC would be issuing bulletins warning people to avoid day jobs."
