His language is really sloppy and amateur throughout. He also has this bad line, “Everything about a startup is sales”.

No it’s not, unless you’re selling snake oil.

Sounds like you're not interested in making money.

I’m interested in adding value and helping make progress in the world, money is secondary, but I have plenty of money.

You missed the sarcasm, GP was agreeing with you by means of a joke.

it's really easy to not care about money when you already have it.

Oh for sure, I grew up poor and am now on the other side. But that’s not what the author is talking about. He’s condescending to people that are making $250k/year for ”leaving millions” on the table. At $250k/year you don’t have to care about money a whole lot, and you can make that being a developer.
