I was close to this exact situation. I regret it.

I'm assuming your in your 20's. Find a well paying job in an area you want to live in, and moonlight your business. When your business pays more than your day job, decisions and risk calculations are easier to make.

It also forces you to delegate from the get-go since your only have 4 hours "side project" time to work after work. If you're building something big, you will have to work with a team. If I was more time constrained, I would have probably made more tactical decisions.

If your esports thing works, great! If not, you hedged your risk and you didn't suffer from opportunity cost.

Throw everything I said out the window if you achieved product market fit and are growing at a viral rate.

Ultimately do what trpv said. "Go with your gut"
