There's a big difference between investing time and money in a venture where you have some control over the outcome and unnecessarily concentrating your passive investments in a single company (or even in anything less than the broad market, given the ubiquity of low-cost index funds). And even then, assuming your startup succeeds, you wouldn't want to wait too long before diversifying some of the profits (which the article supports).
