Employment is the way of the middle.
It's secure but pay the price for it.
Mediocre living conditions.
I for one don't want to retire to a trailer on a half acre in the middle of the Arizona desert. I want comfort.
As you please.
Comfort leads to atrophy.
I know it feels good ... But it's how it is.
Your brain ... Your muscles ... Your senses ...
It all dies. We need discomfort to grow, to get better.
Volatility ... Variations ... Stress ... Well ...
Comfort is Okay for recovery.
But you also need stress,
As much as comfort.

The tech/web startup world...is like virtually complete polar opposites of Wall Street. -- one is an idealists, the other is a realists.
Literally and figuratively.
One is left, the other is right. One is in San Francisco...the other is at the opposite end, NY.
I personally don't need the headache and hardships of trying to launch the complexities of a business. I don't care if it gets bought out at 10 million or whatever.
All I need is a million, or two, from trading my own personal acct -- and i'm the happiest man on the planet.
