Steve Jobs founded the biggest company in the world financed by selling his Volkswagon. Bezos started in a garage. Dell started in a dorm room.

The last time I founded a company, it cost me $30.

My intent was not to imply that founding a company is hard or expensive (just that creating a company that results in generational wealth is an unlikely proposition, if we take as the potential founder pool "those that statistically are likely to reach the swedish 60k limit").

It seems the above reads like something else - thanks for the clarification.
