As someone with his own company I can assure you that you don't. Life is a lot easier when it's not your baby on the line. Do you think he's going to lose sleep over Unity? Not even a little.

More stressful, but also more rewarding I imagine. Also, I don't like being told what to do.

Definitely. Still, if I had that much money, I would do something other than start a company to make more money. I'd try to accomplish something that helps others and makes this world suck a little less. Instead, I've focused my entire efforts towards the survival of myself and those close to me.

I wouldn't be trying to make more money. I see myself operating a small business related to hobbies. Maybe model airplanes or ham radio or something. Breaking even would be fine.
