I'm 66 and I sold the business I built over two decades for more money than I ever thought I'd see - and I spent the first week staring at my bank account trying to figure out why I didn't feel anything, and I finally understood that the money was never the point, the building was the point, and once it was gone I had to meet the version of myself who wasn't building something anymore - Silicon Canals

The money was supposed to feel like something. You work your whole life thinking about the payoff. The day you can finally relax. The moment you don't have to worry about making payroll or whether that big invoice will come through.
