I would hope so. The expectation is to build a multi-billion dollar company. There are more interesting products and ideas to explore out there, but they won't make you rich.

Which is why I'm super-skeptical of anyone who says they're at some rocketship growth startup because they just want to make "great products". Unless their definition of a "great product" is one that makes a lot of money or is popular, they either aren't being honest or don't fully understand their own motivations.

Oh, are we supposed to be in it to "make the world a better place"?

That’s typically how a job works…
