Ouch, number 2 employee at Pinterest - a $10 billion company that’s about to go public this year.

He probably would have been worth an easy 100-200 million.

who gives a fuck. i wish people would say this more, especially on this site. stop worshiping money. why am i saying this here, on what is a 50% get rich quick scheme site? i dont know... i somehow enjoy the downvotes. if you offered me 200 million to throw away a couple years of my life at pintrest, the thrill of saying "no" would far outweigh the benefit of being a sellout. only do stuff that is cool on its merits if you can possibly manage to. im sure almost no one here agrees with that but i find it cathartic to shout it at deaf ears.
