I may or may not have worked with people who had severe cases of Founder's Syndrome. Not much you can really do though. If the VCs want to keep throwing money at them then oh well and if they go out of business...welp not much you can do about that. Actually come to think of it I'm not entirely sure what the point of this article is. Basically it's: bunch of entitled entrepreneurs got easy money and won't listen to people might face hard times.

The problem with entitled founders getting money is while they have it they suck the oxygen out of the room. Then when their companies die they poison the well. Theranos absolutely sucks the oxygen out of the room for people doing real medicine. When they finally die, just try getting funding for a new diagnostic technology. Also see Webvan, pets.com and many others.
