I am confused. What point do you think I am trying to make? I thought my point was that startups are usually a bad risk for less than 1% of the equity pie when compared to the other major option of working for an established tech company with a stable income and work/life balance. Are you saying some people have no other choice in life except to take a craptastic gig at a horrible startup for 0.1% or less of the equity? And by disagreeing, I am somehow some sort of sociopath?
