I think it's interesting part of this is that there was literally no bad decision in Garry's situation.

1) Stay with Microsoft, get promoted over the years end up a multi-millionaire.

2) Join Palantir and end up a multi-millionaire.

It sure does illustrate the meaning of being in the right place at the right time (e.g. starting a career in the early 2000's working as a designer / engineer in a tech hub).
