Absurd in that this Tech Crunch article reads like something out of Elite Daily. Feelgood, relatable, information sushi which isn't even that fresh.

To people who are actually in that process, this seems like regurgitating the obvious. Imagine if there was an article in the Scientific American that consisted of a list of 100 items on "How to do Science", among which are "Keep pen and paper ready, you might have to write stuff down" or "The process can take several years, depending on what kind of science you do" or even "Don't give up if science seems hard to you". That'd be really, really absurd. Technically every fact is right, but really, really absurd.

If the article is to be trusted on the general timeline (yay, I'm almost hitting year 5...so where's my cash?), at any point after year 3, it'll be absolutely useless. After 5, you'll be wary of those who promise you pies in the sky, through reinvention, or reincarnation, or rekindling of your chi.
