This post really really resonates with the thoughts bouncing around in my head currently.

In the current environment (at least where I am) of well-funded startups with no shortage of benefits and work/life balance, a lot of people will think you're crazy for not taking advantage of it.

I personally like the closing sentence:

"Interesting indeed. And somehow, I have a feeling that it’s all going to work out in the end. For both of us."

While optimistic, it reminds me that try as we might to codify and generalize all the ways to be successful in business, your own personal heuristic approach is all that's going to matter in the end.

Thanks for your thoughts. "Your own personal heuristic approach is all that's going to matter in the end." I absolutely 100% agree.

The reply to those people is: there's no such thing as a free lunch. All that funding isn't coming out of the goodness of people's hearts, there are strings attached. We all need to make our tradeoffs.
