I know some really wealthy people who are only wealthy because they took a little risk. I know some people who could be wealthy too if they took the same leap, but didn’t and they aren’t. Perhaps they felt like you do…. It all comes down to choices. These people sticking at Twitter are making their choice. Others left, that was their choice. I’m not going to criticize either choice.
The best you can hope for is a decent bonus, but that is not life altering in any way and I don’t think it is worth the stress of working under an unstable idiot drama queen some insane hours that may or may not get paid, over at.. the million other IT jobs. Sure, taking risks may be beneficial, but you ain’t jumping down a hill just because it is risky, you have to hope for something.
Your opinion may be that the good folks left. Musks opinion may be the good folks stayed. The ultimate determining result is that Twitter stays alive and starts becoming something viable and finds away into the black.
Well said. There are a few of us out there with that Gimli from LOTR approach to life:
“Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for?”
