> You write "products on the market are not solutions to problems." This speaks volumes and not to the good. You then add "tools to make money" which I read as "side hustle." It's has all the salience and import of a disposable tissue ... what you'd expect people to see that as? Bold leadership? C'mon, get real.

What I mean is, turning a solution into a product is an explicit step, and that step is not about solving the problem, but about getting paid. This is not a value judgement, merely clarification - one needed especially here, where people get confused by entrepreneurship advice and sometimes forget that they can just solve their own problems and move on. Not every solution needs to be productized, and there's no law of nature or man that says it must be.
