I disagree: some of his essays have a _very clear_ bias towards advocating that doing a startup is a Great Thing. > If you wanted to get rich, how would you do it? I think your best bet would be to start or join a startup. ( http://www.paulgraham.com/wealth.html http://www.paulgraham.com/wealth.html ) He also argues in other essays that now [2001/3/now] is a great time to start a startup -- and since doing so is such an all-in proposition, it seems reasonable to infer that he is also arguing that it's better to start a startup _than some other option_.
