Rich On A Niche
from the it-is-still-possible dept
Believe it or not, there are still some technology CEOs who have done well this year. Apparently, there's only seven of them, though. The Industry Standard looks at seven technology CEOs who are ending the year 2000 significantly wealthier than they began it. The Standard seems surprised that these guys don't fit the "dot com CEO" stereotype. They mostly seemed to work hard at building a real business rather than just spewing hype. What an odd concept.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
