And while we're at it, why do I care how much of a "risk" you took in the first place? Do we want to reward someone for just having money to start with, or do we want to reward people who actually do things? Wouldn't rewarding those who actually do the work first send a much more positive message than getting someone who already has a lot of money a little more?

- st3v3r 10y agoExcept startups are rather infamous for paying below market, with the idea being that equity will make up for it if the company goes big. Yet, many times the early employees, who are the reason the startup got to where it is many times, get their equity diluted to crap.
