It just makes a good story feeding into the mythology of SV. Not to take anything away from these guys for their actual achievements, but the article itself is nothing more than color-by-numbers startup porn clickbait.
- kevin 12y agoYou're right that most people's experiences don't turn out this way, but that's why it's worth reading. I also think it's unfair to say that this is nothing more than clickbait. It's easy to see a lesson about grit here and I think founders need to hear these stories as much as possible...regardless of where they are located. Also, it seems odd to me that you would say that you don't want to take anything away from their achievement, because this seems to be the only reason you're commenting. I think it's very obvious that Taro has no agenda to perpetuate the mythology of SV. It just happened to be in SV that these series of events happen to him.
