I worked at a YC startup with a pretty good exit.

I was employee #40. I made about $100,000. The co-founders made about $100 million each. If I joined a FANG, I would have been granted $500,000 in RSUs, and they would have tripled in price during the time I was at the YC startup. Unless you turn into another Uber, the vast majority of wealth goes to founders.
