    Being the CEO of your own company really isn’t a guarantee of much, though.

    If he sais something like “CEO of a fortune 500 company”, that would be a bit different.

      It’s not just any company, it’s a law firm 10 years after founding…Yeah, it could be a law firm that’s barely scraping by in some village with 3 other law firms, but I highly doubt it. Plus it’s a joke. The punchline is that the person is loaded.

        But time doesn’t mean growth, necessarily. A whole lot of companies are one man businesses, which don’t even plan to grow.

        Hell, basically being an uber driver means you’re an entrepreneur with your own company, but slogging around drunks and pizzas all over town for 10 years doesn’t really improve the situation.

        The punchline is that the person is loaded, yeah, but it doesn’t follow from the premise, and that’s kinda my point. It hasn’t been set up properly, see?
