I like Steve and have found some of his postings in the past quite inspirational. I found a large part of me responding "you go Steve" while reading this.
It wasn't quite enough, though, to silence the part of me that was responding "you elitist prick" when reading things like "Given the choice between having an extra $100K per year of free money vs. becoming the kind of person who can kill off that much income without fear or worry...".
Many people have lost their livelihood by losing a small portion of this amount of "free money" and are facing dire economic circumstances in their lives. This blog post may just be 6 months too late considering the current world economic status.
Steve usually blogs "way out there" and I suppose that sometimes when you reach hard, you miss the mark. I hope he keeps going, I just thought this one was a miss.
Yeah, I was kinda feeling the same way. I mean it's his blog and can do whatever he wants about it, but things like this aren't too nice to read in some circumstances.
The only thing I find more socially awkward than someone bragging to me about how much money they are making is someone bragging to me about how much money they could be making and are choosing not to.
