The problem is that if success comes too easily and/or too early then it is undervalued.
I made a big pile of cash very early in my career and thinking that such big piles of cash were easy to make, promptly wasted it on "starting a company". I certainly gained value from that money though. The value I gained is the wisdom that I imparted in the top level suggests to the OP.
Cash never came as easy again.
The OP doesn't realise that he has attained one of the possible levels of startup holy grail nirvana of success - the incrediprofitable one man company.
