Yeah $175k plus 30% say stake in high growth company plus already owns home plus parents help woth kids and they own home nearby is different to $175k none of above.
That's the point. "$175k is good enough for me" doesn't mean much, especially as they also have a large stake in the company (not an assumption) as well as possibly other advantages (or not, they dont divulge).
Don't get me wrong. Rethinking comp is great and they are paying well. But you can't make the argument that X is enough for founders (plus let's forget equity!!) and so X is generous for everyone.
