Notice the hero worship surrounding founders who's business had a near death experience, e.g. Elon Musk and Steve Jobs.

The general narrative of "entrepreneur" is singular, not plural. Entrepreneur folklore is the individual (hero) fighting against the collective (culture).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hero_with_a_Thousand_Faces
"The hero starts in the ordinary world, and receives a call to enter an unusual world of strange powers and events (a call to adventure). If the hero accepts the call to enter this strange world, the hero must face tasks and trials (a road of trials), and may have to face these trials alone, or may have assistance. At its most intense, the hero must survive a severe challenge, often with help earned along the journey. If the hero survives, the hero may achieve a great gift (the goal or "boon"), which often results in the discovery of important self-knowledge. The hero must then decide whether to return with this boon (the return to the ordinary world), often facing challenges on the return journey. If the hero is successful in returning, the boon or gift may be used to improve the world (the application of the boon)."

For sites/apps with steady traffic & earnings, the general rule of thumb for calculating valuation has been multiples of monthly net profit:
* 2002-2004: 3 to 6 x monthly net
* 2005-2012: 10 x monthly net
* 2012-2014: 20 x monthly net
* 2014: 30 x monthly net
So to flip a site for > $200k, you need to be doing approx > $7k/month.

I've assumed it was a server side issue I could tune before pushing to production. Thanks, now I know where to look.

The 2000 sweet spot comment from SO was based on angular 1.0.1, which didn't have 'track by' & is approx 1/10 the speed of angular now.
Look @ the updated jsperf digest test, from the SO answer, for angular 1.0.1 vs 1.2.14 http://jsperf.com/angularjs-digest/37

Here is the same demo, as in the article, with just 'track by $index" added to ng-repeat. As you can see, to the human eye, its just as responsive as the reactjs example.
