I'm one. 100% of my income comes from my online ventures and I haven't had a job since I was 21 (I'm almost 28 now).

I'm all for business. Business is great. However, drop this dangerous nonsense about serving the world. It's just an illusion people create for themselves. A lot of people believe that they serve the world if they protest abortions or burn abortion clinics or donate to churches or vote for a particular politician.

Stick to business. If you don't lie or cheat or pollute or mistreat your employees, that's good enough.
