Start or find a company that takes a "value" approach to investing in humans. There are a lot of undervalued people out there, in North America many if not most people's potential is being wasted. SV / FAANG is a land of, in some ways, artificial scarcity. The reason jobs are hard to get is not just that the work is so demanding, it is not true. The rewards are high, and this is part of the reason that not everyone is allowed to partake. I am oversimplifying it, but the same forces that created the FAANGs can allow you to avoid them and companies like them, avoid SV. The world has become more evenly distributed in some ways, but HN and channels like it can make you think you have to pass through these certain gates.
