Part of the genius of YC et al is convincing the 50th percentile YC founder to *not* attempt to be the richest person in Tampa commercial real estate, an outcome probably easily within grasp of 50th percentile YC founder plus 20-30 years. https://t.co/ACaXt7eJbT

there are a ton of business models that need fundamentally zero innovation but require relentless execution for years

basically every founder ignores these to peruse 180 iq bullshit, just build boring businesses

Eh, pass. The world needs B2B software. It also needs competent execution at commercial real estate in Tampa.
