Damn I was writing a blogpost about this exact problem inspired by a talk w/ a friend of mine.

Being an early engineer is the worst deal in all of tech, the people I've seen do it are either comfortably wealthy or just don't care about money.

I did it not caring about money and got burned so badly I was still mad. It's ok though, it is nice to return to work with good people earning more than 2x a founding engineer salary.
