The way I read it he's building a support group for other CEO's of failed startups, other people with new adventures, flush bank accounts and the kind of folks who write these mostly self serving "what I learned" things. Granted this one isn't nearly as self serving as most, but what about the engineers scrambling to get a job so they can feed their kids? How about the marketing people searching for work to cover their mortgage? How about everyone else scrambling to not lose a car?

We never hear about those people because they're too busy scrambling for a life raft to write long sappy "what I learned" medium posts.
