Some people love it, like some people wouldn’t stand being a pro athlete, salesman, teacher or policeman.
That’s super cool for some people. You get to sit a the big table, influence national policies, remodel entire towns or cities. Be present in every country with capital for everything. Building factories, HQ and focusing on the brand like you never could before.
Instead of worrying about making your idea work, your job becomes strategic, delegating tasks, shaping departments, division, mixing human ressources and capital to get an edge. Rationalizing processes
Imagine after 10-40 years, visiting YOUR giant factory on a segway because it’s so huge. You take your car from building to building. It was nothing, just an idea in your head, now people are using your products, they love it. The land you bought empty is now a freaking monster with tens of semi-trailer leaving full of products and as much coming on with parts. Like a ballet, everything is moving smoothly with all the noise and life, agitation, pressure.
The products dance from one production line to another and you get to talk about changing it, making new product in meeting rooms
You feed the country, you’re a productive member of society, no one told you, you decided to make it.
Sure they love money, status etc… but I’m sure most of them sincerely love BUILDING something. Like a kid who used to play with small plastic truck and cranes.
A little monkey build a machine 10 time bigger than himself to feed him. That’s progress.
Imagine how proud they are to see their brand (initially just a thought) in Asia, Africa, Europe, America in language they don’t even speak. An empire.
Before you invented X,Y,Z people used to do it the old way. You built the future.
Anyway, I stop now lol
Edit: Sure other people will be envious and you’ll be the scapegoat for all the collective waste of millions of people… your name will get trashed. Fame sucks…
But you also get billions in shopping money, women etc… your descendants are taken care of thanks to intergenerational wealth and you can build institutes and non profit to make the world a better place.
If you really want the government to do something, instead of screaming in the street or voting like a loser, you lobby.
Might even become an historical figure responsible for a scientific or cultural revolutions…
Not bad huh ?
Especially if the alternative is “I worked the same BS job from 9/5 for 30 years for the same boss, pushing paper and getting in debt”
