Work life balance for entrepreneurs is a tricky to non-existent thing it seems.  In our review of startup demographics going through the Funding Recommendation Engine, one statistic we didn’t share was your answer to the question, how many hours per week do founders spend on their startup?

And the results based on the 1500+ startups who’ve now used the Funding Recommendation Engine is that nearly 82% of you work more than 40+ hours per week.  Seems like few of you are building lifestyle businesses.  The breakdown of hours per week startup founders spend on their ventures is detailed below.

So much for angel investor Tim Ferriss‘ 4 hour workweek, eh?

Is work life balance as a startup entrepreneur a nice idea in principle or really achievable?  We look forward to hearing your ideas and are especially keen to hear the opinions of those of you who are building your startup and maintaining work life balance?

Of course, if you’re a startup entrepreneur reading this, that probably means you’ll be at the office even later tonight.  So thanks for taking time out of your day.

And if you’re busting your butt and seeking funding, be sure to try out our Funding Recommendation Engine.  It’ll save you time identifying suitable investors allowing you to work excessively on something else.
