I'm on the verge of potentially doing this.
The work and hours aren't what scare me. It's putting EVERYTHING into a venture I truly believe in, and believe will be successful and still failing. This happens, and happens a lot, especially in an economically depressed area.
I know businesses that have closed here that would have flourished elsewhere.
The other thing to keep in mind is that for a large percentage of people, money isn't the only indicator for success. Family is another important consideration.
