Absolutely agree with the conclusion. I would take it a step further, though. For us geeks/entrepreneurs, oftentimes the non-conformist thing to do, but which ultimately make us happiest, is to run our own business. Not everyone, as the article points out, but sometimes. When talking to other people, especially non-geeks, I don't try and convince them that they should run their own company. I try and find out what they would most like to do, but haven't seriously considered, because they're looking for a "regular" job. Almost everyone has some hobby/talent/ambition that they never seriously consider pursuing, because it doesn't occur to them that they might be able to pull it off.
