Had to choose between a stable job offer and a risky startup role

I picked the startup for the potential equity, but after 6 months the funding fell through. Anyone else take a big swing that didn't pan out?

Man, I feel that. I left a solid marketing job to be employee number five at a fintech company. We were promised the moon, but the whole thing just ran out of cash after nine months. I spent my savings just covering rent while I looked for something new. The worst part was watching all my old coworkers get their annual bonuses. What was the hardest part for you when the funding fell through?

Ugh, the hardest part was telling my family I'd gambled wrong.
