This is sort of a gibberish article. It has nothing to do with YC really. The story being told is that of any venture backed startup. The investors take the risk but if you build a business they may do better than you financially. Money generates money. Another point they make is what I call "shots on goal". Investors will have tons of shots. That's the nature of investors. If your a startup founder it's tempting to think you have "one shot" but that's nonsense. Every day you have shots, every client call is a shot, every product decision is a shot.
