> didn’t read the whole essay .... work very hard at it, and don’t worry about what others think too much....

I did read the whole essay. It is typical boomer VC bs: ignore read flags, destroy your health, take tons of loans, and live in super expensive world i own. Maybe you win lottery and get the same money as a plumber.

The same bs as university loans.

I will leave immortal essay from one of JWZ here:
