The reality is that the majority startups fail. The huge, overwhelming majority of startup workers won’t ever train their choices, not to mention change into millionaires whereas doing it. “Founders have to inform the lie – that every thing is ok, {that a} function goes to launch despite the fact that the engineer for that function hasn’t been employed but, that payroll will run despite the fact that the VC {dollars} are nonetheless nowhere on the horizon,” writes Crichton. “For some of the hyper-rational populations on this planet, Silicon Valley runs off a fantasy about startup success, of the lowly founder conquering the world.” (techcrunch.com)
