Was recently reading this article where he dismissed the idea of a 70-hour workweek as "bats**t crazy during a podcast on The Rockford Circle. He argued that while founders might work 70 hours due to their financial gains, it's unreasonable to expect the same from employees without proportional compensation.

"Seventy-hour weeks are an obsolete idea,"

I wish all the founders and CEO should think like this.
