I think this is a good post. I also think the dialog is good for the community. With this and the related posts here, there seems to be a preoccupation with not working for the man (whoever that is) and not having to work for money. I think it's baloney and I've yet to hear a reasonable argument for this stance. If you have a startup, you're already not working for the man. If you took VC and you feel they are the man, well ... sorry, no one forced you to do it. I wonder how many of the critics of this POV have had a growing, profitable startup for more than a year.
