IDK anything about your business, but I assume from you saying that there is an expectation that you will be home and able to run it. TBH that assumption is highly unlikely to happen. You will likely be used almost every single day, every single time. The few times you won't be, you'll still have to be ready to drop everything pretty quickly most of the time.
The legend and lore of "reserve beards" and "sitting reserve from my poolside" from days of yore dies very, very hard. I'm sure someone will roll up in a second and drop an anecdote to the contrary but IMHO you will rarely be at home and able to run a biz while on reserve (767 or below especially) for many years if ever.
