Paul Graham, the co-founder of Y Combinator, distilled business success into a four-word motto: 'Make something people want. ' He teaches that wealth is not a zero-sum game (taking money from others), but a positive-sum game (creating value that didn't exist before). He explains that you get rich by solving problems for other people. 'Wealth is what people want. Money is just a way of moving wealth. ' His essays demystify the process of wealth creation, grounding it in usefulness.
