I had four stores at one stage and for me I got a big kick out of it (ego). People knew me as the guy that has those stores. But the problem was only two were profitable and it was just so much work! Now I'm much more wiser and would never dream of doing the same thing again. Like another post said, you have to make your own mistakes and whether it's a mistake or not, think of each endeavour as a stepping stone to the next.
