If those founders hadn't changed the world, they wouldn't be rich.
Sure, Dropbox and Stripe aren't dismantling apartheid or eradicating polio, but these products do solve real problems and make life a little bit more bearable for millions of people.
We should give credit where credit's due and acknowledge this impact.

- AussieWog93 5y agoI know you're just trying to make a point, but in all seriousness what you're saying could be true. If your CRUD apps are used by tens of thousands of people to make life slightly better - or even if the money you make from your CRUD apps allows your wife and kids to live a free life and not have to worry about making ends meet - you could potentially be making a far greater impact than even someone who devotes their life to volunteering.
