So what if you're one of those new hires (or hope to be one)?

I'd say keep polishing your resume. If you dropped out of school, look for a school with low tuition that isn't University of Phoenix but finish your degree. Stay on your toes: work your way through to graduation, get internships each September (as much as you can).

And though the retire-as-a-millionaire thing might have vanished, you'll land on your feet.

Build your own product now that generates revenue and profit. Make your own job.

What will you eat, old newspaper clippings? If we could all do this, VCs would not exist in the first place.
