Wow, someone gives a company $1million and you claim that the person is playing with dreams, time and skills?
Give us a break. No startup has to accept investor money. If you don't want their million, don't take it. Bootstrap with your own cash.
The reality is that going into startup for money is a big risk, it's a big gamble. Go in for the fun, go in to learn new things, play with new tech, go in to avoid ( big company politics, enterprise style software development, meetings, locked down environments).
Do it for the for the fun and if you make money great, if you don't, you come out with new experience. Long before fullstack became a buzz word, I earned my badges due to startup. I coded, I did design, I touched the DB, I setup the servers, wired the network, setup the firewalls. It was hella fun, I made $0. But my experiences from then still serves me till this very day.
Cheer up, the world is not such a terrible place.
