Maybe this is all just projection (Hey, at least I'm honest), but I think there's something valuable being said here. About building something for it's sake instead of building it solely for money. In the first case you're actually creating something, in the second case you're moving only towards a payday.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with getting fantastically rich (or soemthing), you probably wouldn't be building something if not for the payday.
It's absurd to focus only on that, though. I know I couldn't sleep at night if I made a million (or 10) bucks selling a worthless company to a bigger company. That's not why I want to create.
Don't get it twisted though, I'm not saying every company that doesn't feed the poor, clothe the needy and solve the issues of world peace and universal justice is misguided. I'm simply saying it's worth aiming for something/anything beyond the financial gain.
