Some people here seem to think that running a company is a true Ithaca. It seems to me like the narrators problem is that he doesn’t really know what his Ithaca is, and is instead perusing lotus eating (wealth, whether as a worker or an owner). The narrator’s folly is that he believes that being a owner is Ithaca.
