I've always thought this argument was really hypocritical. The argument is you shouldn't be concerned about a few percent of equity since once it matters you will be rich and not care. Except the person making that argument is certainly rich and seems to care a lot about these few percentage points. Why are we expected to not care when they clearly do?

Similarly, those few % of equity means less equity later for future rounds of funding or for paying out to employees.
