A culture of occupational martyrdom makes it much easier to build a pyramid. People are rushing to supply correct definitions of stoicism but oddly those stoic sentiments rarely appear discussions about IPOs and how to be a billionaire.

I don't know what it's like to be you, but IPOs and being a billionaire are well outside my sphere of experience.

You'll see plenty of conversations on the topic here if you hang out long enough. I'm not a billionaire either so I have to store my cash in a swimming pool like everyone else.
