I appreciate and believe in the message, but perhaps it's time to consider the quote:

a startup exit is opium for ambitious techies

That's not to say you shouldn't go for it, just make sure it's not your opium in life.

You also have to go into it with your eyes open, because your deal is not going to improve from what you negotiate at the start. Not all startup exits are life-changing.
