Is building an art business unique compared to other types of businesses in terms of longevity?

Yes, the art business is totally unique in that you can keep selling in your forties, fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties, and potentially even pass the business on if you finally want to retire in your nineties. It’s a unique type of business where you can just keep building and building and building over decades. This longevity aspect means you’re not just building a short-term income source, but potentially a lifelong and even multi-generational asset.
