All about starting up Entrepreneuring and trying to get things done! If you want to have it done right... you have to do it yourself! But maybe with little help :)
Yes, no doubt two Alpha males don't make for good pair. There has to be a passive aggressive partnership. But this issue is very deep far and wide. It's companionship, corroboration, friendship and more. I think the fundamental differences of partnership has a lot to do with WHEN you started that partnership. If you start at an early stages as friends.. i.e. Jerry/David, Brin/Sergey then it's based on a good foundation and will endure. While if you started that partnership for the sole purpose of starting a company then you don't have that friendship foundation but instead a business where trust is thin and faith is all you have.<p>Good analogy: a relationship based on friendship will have ever lasting bonding versus one night stand turn pre-nup to marriage is a leap of faith.<p>I've tried and gosh darn it.. it's harder to find a co-founder than it was to find my soon to be wife!!! So given up the friendship and will probably look for a <i>business</i> partner where the sole purpose of collaboration is...money. They are dime a dozen.<p>Funny.. I have a whole website dedicated to this particular issue of co-founder... http://www.QuasiPreneur.com :)
