Re:After Your First Big Startup Success, What’s Next? (2014) by throwaway574w on Monday May 06, 2019 @05:39AM (#19837966)
10 years ago exited with FU money.

Golden handcuffs for a while, left work 2012.

Honestly didn't do much else. Easy to find subpar ideas but lack the hunger to execute.

Fast forward a decade and are kids, wife, unhappy marriage (with no fault divorce so you can transfer most of the wealth over) and you really wish you just had a "normal life". You know, where going to work each day is necessary and thus defensible and rewarding.

Quite honestly I spend a lot of time thinking about departing life. People thinking startup success is the end game are kidding thenselves in my anecdotal experience.
