From Scott Galloway's comparison

What was said about L2

  • Galloway sold L2 for $160 million after ten years of work. Scott Galloway founded L2, a digital benchmarking and business intelligence firm, and sold it for $160 million after a decade of building it.

    He sets that figure against the $118 million in value each Nvidia employee has created, to show how small a decade of founder work can look next to the output of a single employee at a dominant company.
