Very true. My technique these days is to find what the widespread masses will like and then work backwards until I find something that I will like too. At this rare intersection, I build.

But when you can sell tech companies for 10x yearly income, who's going to hold on to their successful company for that long?

It's the most fun I could possibly have while working and I feel that I have a lot of power while doing it. Since I'm not rich, I've got to work so this is the natural choice. Were money no issue then I might focus on some exciting programm

Mine says that she is jealous of my computer, that I spend more time with it than her, and she doesn't even let me use it at night when I could be sleeping next to her. She's going to kill it one day, I know it.
