This reminds me of a story back around that time about a guy who was, like, employee 200 at Amazon. He goes to the can, and sees a vestment sheet for the early employees, and realizes that he’s been hired just after people were getting stock grants. Just just prior to him are shortly to become millionaires, and he’s sitting there with a regular job. He quit because of the inequity, and did a tour with this story as a “comic,” but it was just bitter. (I can never find this story any more.) Anyway, the point is that he has a great job at a booming company, with nothing but bright days ahead, and he can’t enjoy it because he knows other people are getting a lot more. I mean, I get it, but everyone can point to someone who has made a better deal for themselves. It doesn’t mean you have to despise the deal you got. I know I can’t make that kind of money because I know I don’t have the personality or family situation to make that kind of deal. And that’s ok. I can’t complain. I do alright.
