I am assuming that most poeple here will be delighted by these numbers. 200 jobs. 100+ startups. Millions of users. Millions of dollars in revenue etc... Great,

I am assuming that most poeple here will be delighted by these numbers. 200 jobs. 100+ startups. Millions of users. Millions of dollars in revenue etc... Great, but frankly I would not measure YC off those numbers. Fast forward YC 10-20 years from now. You often hear of Paypal or Google Mafia. My guess is that the YC Mafia will be orders of magnitude more powerful. Successful founders will go on to invest into more startups or create more startups, hence creating more jobs, bringing out more technologies, helping more companies etc....
