Nice article, but what do the title and text have to do with each other?
Spending ~30+ years learning to write and sell books doesn't look like a Get-Rich-Quick scheme to me. His father also bought land so that his future generations could become rich. That's not quick either.
- smudgymcscmudge 9y agoI had the same thought. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I didn’t expect it to turn into stories of crazy business ventures.

- dang 9y agoWe can change the title but someone needs to suggest a better one, as I can't think of one. A good title is accurate and neutral (which doesn't necessarily mean boring) and ideally uses representative language from the article.
