seriously ! everything in life is cost / result equations .... it might be easier for some than others to start a company (network, location, background, experince, timing, team, intelligence ...) but everyone pays something in exchange for a result.

your emotional labor as a founder is clearly a huge one, you should be aware of it, but the article is foundementally ignoring that fact that there is a price for everything.

we all so the "pasty" elon musk ... it's not that it's the only way to build amazing things and so many people look that way playing video games ....

my point is, anyone wants to build something and not pay for it (emotionally, financially, reputation ....) is just unaware what the word build means.
