The man is anyone at the top of the ivory tower looking down upon his minions slaving away while the man counts his dead presidents and belly laughs.
Sure working for yourself is always an option if you have a good idea for a business. I could start a bar in Chicago but the odds of success are low giving the amount of money I would have to invest as well as the fact that the cost of living in Chicago would require my business to generate substantial income for me to make it. Conversely, if you're living in Bali, you could start a beach bar on the cheap and even if you're only making 10-20k a year, that is more than enough to live a good life over there. Plus you're on the beaches of Bali (beats Lake Michigan in the winter time).
Are you old enough to remember Bali Hai wine?
