There is a huge assumption here that being an Entrepreneur, the only desire and success definition is to become well-off. Assuming your statement in good faith, it is not the only outcome. So offering Boggleheads strategy as an alternative or get the same outcome as Entrepreneurship is misinformed. I've come across a few friends when I shared I was building something or working for a startup, their immediate question was "Did you not get a job at Google?" :)

There are many people out there who enjoy building. Even if it gets very low traction and doesn't make them life changing fortune, people enjoy it. Along the way, they might make some money. Of course, there are also a lot of people who get on to this journey with the primary goal of making it big. We should not look at the "side-effects" and think that is the cause.
