But entrepreneurs also report more stress and worry than other workers do, and slightly more sadness, both of which have been tied to worse health. Edward Marks, co-founder of a mobile app company called Twist, said that, unlike being an employee, "so much of your self-worth is actually invested in a company. I've seen entrepreneurs cry."
不过,创业人士自称感到压力与焦虑的程度也甚于其他受薪人士,同时他们体会到的悲哀程度也略高,而这些情绪都与健康恶化有关。爱德华·马克斯(Edward Marks)是一家叫Twist的移动应用软件公司联合创始人,他说,跟普通员工不一样,创业者“把自己的身家性命都投到了公司里。我曾亲眼见过创业者大哭。”
Lack of health insurance may deepen entrepreneurs' stress. Three-fourths of self-employed business owners reported having health insurance, compared with 9 in 10 among other workers — the most significant difference between the two groups. (Likely related, entrepreneurs are also less likely to visit the dentist.)
缺乏医疗保险可能会进一步加深创业人士的压力。相比受薪人士90%的医保覆盖率,自雇企业所有人中只有75%拥有医保——这是这两类人群最显著的区别。(创业者看牙医的可能性也较低,这也许跟上述情况有联系。)
"One of the biggest reasons a would-be entrepreneur doesn't become one is lack of health care," said Scott Gerber, founder of the Young Entrepreneur Council, which provides startup mentorship and resources and conducts research on entrepreneurs' needs. To address this problem, his organization is introducing StartupInsurance, an online platform of health insurance plans offered by major health insurers, which will be compliant with the Affordable Care Act by 2017 and are tailored for entrepreneurs.
