  > People start company to get rich. Some people that try to start a company do it for that reason. Most of those people with that motivation fail miserably. The viewpoint that entrepreneurship is the domain of the greedy pigs that must be sneered at is viewpoint of the entitled, supremacist, antimeritocracy failed old world aristocratic elite, the modern anarchists, and the stalinists.

  By SV, I meant Silicon Valley. If you work for a big company for many years and you do well, you basically guarantee that you'll have a couple million dollars by the time you're 40. Similarly with finance, law, medicine. There are many high paying jobs that guarantee you to have a very comfortable life. Entrepreneurs have the opposite. Sure you could be worth 100s of millions but most likely you will lose your money. Or work twice as hard to provide yourself half the salary.
