The week my first real business fell apart
It was a Tuesday in late October, about five years back, when my main supplier called to say they were shutting down. I was running a small online shop selling custom leather goods, and that one call meant I couldn't fill over 30 orders. I spent the next three days scrambling, trying to find a new source, but the quality and price were never the same. I had to refund everyone and close the site within a month. The big lesson was not putting all my trust in just one partner. Has anyone else had a single point of failure take down a project you worked hard on?

Sounds like you learned that lesson the hard way.

Tell me about it, my own wallet still hasn't forgiven me for that mistake.
