You Should Hate Everything About Entrepreneurship Culture

It‘s destroying your life, and your future.

Many of us used to dream about making $50,000 a year.

Then we found out that wasn’t enough.

You can’t raise a family on that now, not even in a small town.

So we got a better job. Surely $70,000 plus our spouse’s income would land us in the financial comfort zone. Once again, we were wrong. Even families making $98,000 a year are still saddled with debt. They have to work harder and longer than ever, and they can’t even enjoy what they have. They lie awake at night, worried about losing it all.

This is life in America, thanks to a word we should despise:

Entrepreneurship.

Let me explain what I mean.

Entrepreneurship Teaches Money Worship.

We’re drowning in articles about how to make money right now. Most of them don’t even give you good ideas. Last week, one of these articles suggested I record a hit album. (I’ll get right on that.)

These articles are written by the same people who got us into this mess. They write ten posts a day about how to get rich. They promise, “You’ll never have to worry about money again.”
