I regret not taking any real risks. I joined the fortune-500 corporate software world, never tried a start-up, never made anything memorable, never broke new ground. I regret letting myself get comfortable, to a place where the money is too good to leave.

99% of startups are neither memorable or breaking any new ground.

  It sounds like what he is saying is that it hasn't helped his creativity though, and he's been compromising his creativity up until now..

    This, yes. And other things.

      Sorry- my reply was a bit insensitive, probably just jealous of your situation :)
