It's not like there is a terrific economic climate. These people have families to think about, saving up for retirement and paying the bills. People that depend on them. This is real life. Not all of us get to have our own successful startup or become the next Jobs, Gates, Bezos or Zuckerberg.
It's very easy to assume you know what people want. The four people I mentioned above were as much a success because of timing as much as they were because of their genius.
