I found it interesting when Wheelan used the examples of sucessful individuals to illustrate his point of human capital. For example, even though Steve Jobs was fired from Apple, he created Pixar because his skill and talent allowed him to. Similar situations would occur with the nation's top athletes if they lost a job, another team would be there in seconds to swoop them up. I never really considered measuring a person's worth based on how economically valuable they can be to the society they live in.
