Businessmen are not philosophers and thinkers that writers and artists are (sometimes, not always.) Nothing to emulate, except financial success, which is so often a matter of luck, and in those two cases most certainly. Neither Jobs nor Gates can guide your children to riches. Maybe the super salesman Larry Ellison can.

“Maybe the super salesman Larry Ellison can.”

I just don’t “get” him. Nonetheless, he must be doing something right, given that he is beloved by no one.

Oracle makes a damn good product IMO, far and away the best in its field; I based this part of my career on it - but unfortunately, they know it, and price it accordingly.
