I don't know about you, but in my 10-year career so far, the amount of cash compensation I've earned is orders of magnitude higher than the actual liquid compensation I've received from equity actually becoming worth something. tl;dr I got lucky and won the startup lottery, but it didn't pay out nearly as much as the cash compensation I've earned.

Am I in the minority here? I doubt it.

They’re probably talking about RSUs at Big Tech, rather than startup options.
