Bad Economy? A Better Opportunity For Startups

Paul Graham argues that economy doesn’t matter for your startup if you have right founders. More over, bad economies are good opportunities as many cases startups bring new products and services at a much cheaper rate. Your product or service could be readily accepted by your customers. 

The economic situation is apparently so grim that some experts fear we may be in for a stretch as bad as the mid seventies.
