True, I looked up the adjusted amount and it's $16m.

But it semantics, as Thiel's point was to contrast the value he created with the value he captured.

There is a contrast only if you consider that the only way to capture value is through money.

Also you may think that "Capture value" is not a priority for everybody (Not only money, but also public attention, or power).

In fact capturing value as a priority may absorb too much of your time to be useful.
