The most intriguingly mistaken sentence is "But billionaires do not become billionaires by being passive about their own interests."
As we've observed, the most successful startup founders are usually the ones who are not doing it for the money.

financial interests, maybe, but not "the thing you are most interested in" interests (=passion). and sometimes those align, no?

if success is measured by 'admired & respected' then I agree, but becoming a billionaire surely isn't serendipitous?
