Every surprisingly insightful decision will be met with derision before you execute it. That is where courage, stubbornness and willpower come into play. Success is always based on ignoring 99% of the opinions around you. If not enough people think your plan is impossible, your idea is simply not particularly good. If you do not fail a few times first, it cannot be such a good idea either. It is simply too obvious in that case. Next, when the inevitable has materialized and Sergey Brin and Larry Page have become billionaires, they will start whining that such outcome is "unfair" and that these ill-gotten gains should be "re-distributed" to the more unfortunate and less "lucky" elements of society.
