People can start a family in their 20s today, but not working for a startup. For instance, getan engineering degree, a job in a big company with a good union (IG Metall is the one im familiar with) and you can start a family at 25. That won't get you a yacht like a startup could, but it will give you stability and a very comfortable life.
startup gets you a yacht if you are the lead engineer or the one who starts it. if you are one of the initial employees maybe you get some shares that you can't cash right away and a somewhat a better position and possibly a thanks.
I know personally people with a 3 digit employee number at a company (hard to call it startup at that point) who are millionaires. Anything pre-IPO is serious money, the first 100 employees usually in the high 7 figures.
