African proverb: "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

Startups are designed to go fast and cash out. The founders make a fortune and move on to something else, life doesn't really change for anyone else. A business with real longevity will go more slowly but everyone in the business will share in the ride.
