I guess the real trick is to build your own business, but it keep it small enough that you don't end up exactly in the same place, but with yourself at the head of it.

Find yourself a tiny niche, fill a need for just enough people that you can keep yourself gainfully employed doing something you care about, and not have to worry about hiring other people to work under you and all the other shit that comes with building a company. Stay small and lean. You won't get Facebook rich, but maybe you'll be happy.
