It gets lonely because if you are in service business you start losing faith and trust in people. People lie on resumes, lie about their abilities, clients don't pay, clients lie on what was promised, people quit because they got 5k more somewhere.
My perspective about people changed significantly after having worked with and for people in the last 10 years. However, you build up resilience to a point where nothing can surprise you. You know exactly how to get the outcomes you want from every conversation. You get good at identifying good people and you get good at making money.
Yet, it is lonely. Yes, it is lonely. But it is all worth it.
