I used to be bitter about stuff like this but I've gotten over it.

The chances of getting wealthy by joining a small startup are very small. It happens, but it's probably not going to happen for you.

If you really want to do well, you have to pull together the resources to start a successful company.

On a different note, I used to work for an almost billionaire, they were incredibly cheap. I often reminded myself that you don't make a billion dollars by wasting money!

AND on another note, I've noticed some founders want to put you on a 5 or even 6 year vesting schedule.

I should go back to welding.
