    i knew a couple of start up people.

    a lot of people involve are already rich. they don’t need pay and they are basically gambling on the payday in equity.

    they also tend to have a delusional sense of how important they are doing. i once went out with someone who was just trying to clone grubhub or whatever, but without any car delivery as some ‘eco’ version of it. they were not a smart person. probably a talented dev though.
