We take pay cuts to work at a startup in favour of equity, not every startup needs a former FAANG Staff engineer in SF, and the idea is for the money to last about a year. If it’s lasting two, investors will be upset the company is turning into a lifestyle business. Get traction and re-raise. They made it work with $125k, I don’t understand the push back with 3x as much money.
