+1 to this advice. You don’t have to pay or give equity for it, and counterintuitively offering to do so may pessimize for the desire or ability of very able advisors to help you.https://twitter.com/r00k/status/1195477547280150533 …

As usual, I read Patrick advice about the startup world and feel they apply to senior levels at bigcorp. An L7/E7/L67 engineer looking to become L8/E8/Partner faces many similar challenges to those of a startup founder (and if they want to make DE/E9, 2nd time founder).

I also think the bigcorp crew has higher expected value: higher probability of success, but lower 95th percentile return. That said, with L8s pulling $1m/y, you can retire quite quickly - anything >$75k/y yields diminishing happiness returns, passive $75k very doable at SWR 3%.

Interesting thread. So like, I've been at this startup for about 4 yrs now. It's not *my* startup per se, but I'd still like to pass on lessons learned. So yeah, this type of advice outlet sounds a lot easier than writing books about it.
