Great post, Christian. While I completely understand (playing devil's advocate here), would the argument of Bun's opposition, namely the Tweet you embedded, be that start-ups do NOT let you transition into retirement? In other words, their Tweet seems to argue that since these start-ups "want you to grind" in the beginning and at the end, employees are being hired with the false pretense that their work will ease once a few decades have been dedicated? I assume that you find this view to be erroneous because, as you said, you plan on dedicating your later years to your family, no?

Short answer: after a few decades, a startup is no longer a startup. Either it's dead, or a large public company.

In any case, it's at a new stage: https://svoutsider.substack.com/p/startups-101-what-business-school
