I gave it a quick once over but the thing that already made me think this auther does not know what he is talking about is this line:

> You've got some decent stock, say, like, 200,000 options. You vest over four years and your strike is $1/share

What startup is that? If it has a $1/share valuation its already near the end of its "start up" runway. And if your getting 200k in shares then its either really earl on or the strike price is really low. I have had offers from YC-Backed companies in the past and its one or the other, not both.
