The four hour workweek was inspirational for me starting my own business in 2009. My business now employs 250 full time people and helps thousands of clients. I remember HN back then was all entrepreneurs like me and everyone was excited about the free market. I feel like now a lot of people in countries with too much government regulations are here and are downers to people who want to build their own thing.
This post is on the money. Being wealthy has almost all of the benefits of being famous.

Since I am perhaps such a "downer person" who lives in such a country: what should such people then do?
If you are an entrepreneur and a creative thinker, you absolutely should be a part of this community.
If you are a socialist who believes all business success is just luck and people who earn riches are inherently bad, you probably would like Reddit better.
