Here’s the rub, Harlem...
Every few months, we get the same tirade from you. And it doesn’t seem to be what you try to claim in this post. It always seems to be:

“I’ve figured it out, and don’t question my way.”

And I stated in the linked poll/thread that “your way” only works if you work for yourself. And I am happy that your entrepreneurial venture has worked out so well for you. 80% of entreneural startups don’t make it past five years. For you to hit it big shows aptitude, effort, and luck combined in your favor.

But that is the only career choice where working insane hours in your 20s will lead to more family hours in your 40s. Your situation worked, but it is SOOOOOO far to an extreme end of the curve that you should avoid applying your situation to anyone else’s.

Again, congrats on your success.
