Agreed.
It is an idea you have to wrestle with. Do you want to become an industry leader and spend the time and resources to get that big, which means a lot of overhead and responsibility. Or do you want to stay small and live a better quality of life. At some point, you have to decide just how much ego plays into it, and what your life's goals are. Is the money and freedom enough? Or do you want more, and willing to make that sacrifice?
I think many people in this industry over think just making a good product. I can think of literally dozens of local area websites (as an example) and ideas that could make money. There is a lot more work involved with 'some' of them (like face to face meetings with business owners) that keep me on the sidelines for those local website ideas (been there done that).
That being said, many are simply happy being their own boss, making their own hours, and clearing six figures annually. It makes a comfortable life for them and family with low stress. How does that cliche go? Find a job you love, and you'll never have to 'work' a day in your life.
