Editor's note

My favorite quote from this week's top story came from Y Combinator's Aaron Harris, "Be frugal, but be smart. You don't want to pay yourself too little that you can't focus on work because you're trying to figure out how to put food on the table, and you don't want to pay yourself anything extravagant. You're not supposed to be getting fat off the salary such that you're no longer hungry for the equity."
