I’ve worked out what annoys me about this article. It’s assuming that the point of a startup is to make you a ton of money rather than a ton of enjoyment. Sorry, but I’d go for the latter every day of the week. Maybe it’s the Britishness in me coming out :)



The thing that annoys me is the assumption that we're all anti-success narrow-minded ne'er-do-wells without the gumption to get out and be successful, or celebrate when other people are successful. And you know, I don't recognise that in most of the people I meet. Some of them, but it's not the majority.
