    How do you know if someone is doing just fine? Many people have
    staggering debts but appear well off. Many solos borrow heavily. Small
    business is tough, especially in the early years. Student loan debt and
    children only make it harder. Some people are better off waiting until
    they are financially sound before embarking on a solo career.
