> Eh, how is that different from going into business by yourself?
Pedantically, there is unlikely to be a wage. But even if we use the term loosely, the type of scalable business described usually do not make any money until it is sold, so you are effectively forced out as soon as it is possible.
A highly paid wage slave may technically be able to leave just as quickly, but in practice the golden handcuffs are often very strong. It is telling that the phrase used was "People working in finance" rather than "People who briefly worked in finance".
As opposed to 'people who briefly ran their own business'?
As opposed to "to be a business owner and have that business scale". You could have just read the earlier comments...
