I personally never heard of him, but I appreciated the writing anyway. It is a beautiful piece.
The majority of businesses fail, you won't achieve everything at 26, you're not going to get rich, and being addicted to success and fame is not a good thing. Have a realistic plan B, a way to have a normal life like everyone else in the event that your ambitions expire.

Actually, I think the idea of "published" on the web means it is for an audience. I appreciate yuvadam providing the context as I was baffled, too.
I can only speak for myself, but I put a lot of stuff up there which is simply like talking or painting or jamming at an open window to me: anyone is free to stop by and watch and/or comment, but I always feel free to be as personal, or incomprehensible, or random as I want to be. I don't get paid to provide a certain service in my personal space, I don't even have to explain myself to anyone; so you know what, I don't. And if someone else posted it to another site, that's something else entirely.
