Genius Sells to Media Lab for $80M
That's contextual. For example, as someone living outside the USA with no immigration pathways, I simply can't get a FAANG salary.

Very true, so you would compare it to the <best job you could get>. But simply saying "It's such a bad idea to take VC money, just bootstrap" is too simple of a statement. Again, I say this as a bootstrapper.

Sure, but they also will have a much more difficult time getting the type of VC money American startups get.
