No one wants to work forever and that extra is a good way to pad the bank account.
Its not like digging ditches and then working 8 hours standing in a retail store.

It doesn't work for many people and I think the reason is that once you get a taste of being your own boss its nearly impossible to put up with anyone else in that position.
Aside from that a lot of people who have an employee mentality don't understand real responsibility and cant get their heads around it.
Finally I think an important factor in success is not having a backup. I think you put 100% into something when, and only when it's the only real option.
I've started dozens of businesses and business side projects, my success rate when I didn't have a backup plan and it had to work, period, is 100%, and in situations where I was just testing an idea and didn't really need it to work the success rate is close to 0%.
