True, being a CEO is very different from being a engineer, and more people should know about the realities of it before they jump in.
But being able to generate more per month doing your own thing than your hot salary at your last job? That's real, and many people are doing it, including myself. Plus, I am still the lead engineer and code as much as I like, and I've learned so much and have grown as a person from it. On top of that we didn't need to raise any money to do it (despite this article suggesting otherwise).
Hiring great engineers is hard, but articles like this come off as trying to keep great people from leaving their jobs to chase their dreams.
