This is the right way to think about it because at the end of the day startup success is rare.
That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t due your due diligence and get all the info you can before joining a startup. IMHO the most important thing is the character and financial savvy of the founders, because it’s one thing to fail but it’s another thing to essentially succeed but then get screwed because of investor shenanigans. The founders are your only hope against this scenario.
