Building a Billion Dollar Business

"i grew up in san francisco during arguably the biggest wealth creation boom in human history, so don't be too hard on me. And i think that i used to think, from just being too plugged into the internet matrix, that if i didn't build a billion dollar business, that i was in some way going to be a failure," he says. "Once i could live comfortably, it actually wasn't worth going into high gear." He adds: 'I began to appreciate the art of writing at a really deep level as well'
