I apologize that I have not read the linked article.<p>I am dismayed by the hero worship that is so common these days - "here's how to be an overachiever", "Uber's valuation exponentiates", "Children graduate high school without ever meeting their parents".<p>It is exceedingly uncommon for only one parent to have a job anymore. Nowadays, if there are two parents in a family, they both work, not to get rich, but in their struggle just to get by.<p>When I was a kid, unless he was aboard ship or - for a year - stationed in Saigon, my father was always home for supper.<p>Me, I work seven days a week, quite commonly go for days without sleeping so I can work.<p>What have we become?
You, too, can be an overachiever, so long as you have someone to run personal errands and do your chores, you're rich enough to have quick "outs" for personal emergencies, and you also fall into the small subset of people who function perfectly with 4 hours of sleep, and etc. God help you if you have kids.
