Are we talking about Stripe? Or you like to vent about startups in general?

If this is just about startups in general, I fully agree. I didn't know we have moved on to a new topic but ok.

I was responding to the parent thread regarding Stripe being a cult. No other cults pay most of their members in millions of dollars.

The point is that getting paid that much is, for the average employee, purely a lucky result of having happened to choose the company that succeeded.

Sure, so it is not related to stripe.

I totally agree with you. Bad luck and/or choosing bad company would get you in a bad situation. Water is also wet.
