S.F. tech founder says 84-hour workweek approach is ‘because I’m San Franciscan’

Hours like that aren’t unheard of in the S.F./Silicon Valley tech world. Same in NY and investment banking.

It’s why I can’t be mad at rich people who are willing to make this type of sacrifice. I know my sorry *ss isn’t willing to work at this level.

I’m willing to bet as well a good number of these folks only work this level of hours for so long. Hard to sustain.
And it's full of jeets. What're the odds.

I did the same when I was younger but I also didn't expect it of any/everyone. I knew I was being retarded (I still am, but in a good way).
 
I have worked 60+ hours a week.

Then I heard someone say "I work to live. I don't live to work." It struck a chord with me and I never looked back.
Speaking of long hours, with national signing day yesterday I think of these coaches who are preparing for conference championship games this weekend while trying to close on recruits yesterday. You know those guys weren't getting any sleep. Haha.

But it is the end of the hours of research and scouting that heavily.
