I don't know what "I said now" means.  

the fact you think dropping out of college and starting a kick-up in a garage wasn't risky... lol.  I got nothing for you man.  I really don't.  

If we cannot align that Bill took all the risk with starting MS, there is no need for additional debate, because that is just nonsense garbage.  

Sorry I didn't actually say "now'. My first post was specifically said that middle income businesses are risky, but past that they're not. 

What exactly does risk mean to you? If someone is risking their life or property, that is risky. Being a coal miner is risky. Becoming an electrician is risky.  

Taking a break from college to try out a business venture while living at your upper income parent's house is not risky.  

Big business don't start big, so their creation was risky because they were small business at one point.  Nvidia didn't open up worth a trillion dollars.  

I think dropping out of college and putting one's own money on the table via a start-up absolutely is risky as ****.  I wouldn't do it, just like most others.  Bill took a gamble, it paid off.  Good for him.  I don't see the point in being jealous because he has stones I do not.  I tip my hat to him.
