* Presumably, this is the reason why [[Image Comics]] exists. Others have claimed that Image was founded not for creative freedoms, but for [[Money, Dear Boy|bigger paychecks.]]
* In Rucka's 2011 run, [[The Punisher]] takes on The Exchange, a bunch of former members of other various criminal organizations in the Marvel universe who decided to start their own organization.

* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series]]'' uses this as an homage to both the ''Futurama'' joke and the ''Fosters'' joke.▼

* In the ''[[Homestar Runner]]'' game "Strong Badia the Free", Strong Bad gets everybody to secede from the King of Town's domain. He thinks everybody is going to join the now-autonomous Strong Badia, but instead they all go off and create their own countries. The rest of the game is him trying to convince everyone to band together to overthrow the King.

*** And now The Tropes Wiki has [http://editthis.info/tv_tropes/Main_Page its own example of] Start My Own. A user, disgruntled that the Admins at the Tropes Mirror wouldn't let him import pages upon pages of S&M porn to the wiki went and started his own... but unlike the Tropes Wiki, this one (which appears to be a one-man operation) makes no pretense about being anything but a copy-paste of TV Tropes.
*** In addition to the first Start My Own Trope Mirror, there is now the ''[http://tvtropesmirror.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Unofficial TV Tropes Mirror]'', which is being run by contributors to the original Tropes Wiki who are upset about the fact that the creators of the Tropes Wiki really meant it when they said that [[Anime]] would not be considered a [[Special Snowflake Syndrome|Unique and Special Snowflake]] (the Unofficial Tropes Mirror Wiki, for example, renamed the "[[Band of Brothers]] trope page "Nakama", and doesn't bother with a "[[True Companions]]" page, for example.
** [[All The Tropes|This very wiki]] was also a Start My Own created by several veteran tropers (including one who'd been a member of the site since its early days) who disagreed with the [[Think of the Advertisers!|major changes made to TV Tropes' policies in 2012]].
*** And there has been at least one fork from ATT, as well.
