Technology & technicians, you can always buy with money; but the wealthiest person must build relationships.
I haven't met a rich technician
A good technician gets it right maybe 60% of the time. And a great technician, maybe 61% of the time.
I also know that I am not a great technician.
All the great chefs I know - Thomas Keller, Jean-Georges Vongerichten - they are technicians first.
