Line 224:
* When Brazilian movie magazine SET was sold to a different publisher, one of the editors went to start its own publication, ''Preview''. Both have a [[Fandom Rivalry]] now (it helps that said editor's boss at SET eventually returned to the magazine...).
* The Founding Fathers of America hated living in the colonies under Great Britain. So they started their own country. With freedom, and representation. And then muddled everything by establishing protectorates of its own (Cuba, Guam, etc.)
** Freedom? These folks owned <u>slaves</u>... and the long-running dispute over slavery would ultimately lead to the next Start My Own attempt, the [[American Civil War]].
* Boyd Coddington's hot rod shop, Hot Rods by Boyd, faced bankruptcy in 1998. So, president Chip Foose left to form his own company, Foose Design. The two companies endured a fierce rivalry right up until Boyd Coddington's death ten years later.
* After leaving [[After Forever]] due to [[Creative Differences]], Mark Jansen formed [[Epica]].
