Success is Likely

The number of failed business start-ups is highly exaggerated, according to research by StartupJournal.com.

They found that 65% of new businesses were still operating after four years. About 1/3 of the businesses that show up in the statistics as failures were considered to be successful by the owners. Many sold their businesses or closed them to retire or pursue other activities.
