It sounds cliche but sometimes the startup world chooses you rather than the other way around. What I found most interesting about Biz Stone's story was that it felt like I was rooting for him rather than feeling like he was hustling me. As entrepreneurs, we all have the "pauper" backstory and lifestyle but sometimes we have to project where we want to be. It comes off in our passion, drive, confidence, optimism, and sometimes bravado. As they say, history is written by the winners. Biz Stone wrote it before he got started though.
