The money alone is good enough. I can probably just retire with all those money and stocks. Let alone tons of techs and a shiny CV. Kudos for starting from a height most people can't reach for life. I guess you are going to start another company eventually?
- keepamovin 2y ago9 years is a long time just for money tho. Too much money focused on that attitude
- markus_zhang 2y agoIt's not that long if you can retire and learn good skills.
- j0hnyl 2y agoI don't think so, in fact, now that I'm a little "older", I regret not chasing money earlier.
- markus_zhang 2y agoExactly. Now at 40+ I can only hope for a lottery ticket to retire early and do what I really want. Anything else is just too slow or might reduce my wealth.

It doesn't go as far as it did 9 years ago, but it's still ahead of a whole lot of people in this economy.
