Yes I worked for a guy in 1998 who basically invented both salesforce and AWS and wanted me to join him as the technical lead. I thought he was nuts and told him no. Due to the geographical location of the company he couldn't find anyone else to do it and went back to fixing PCs.
You're right. But this was in an area where there were no staff. One reason I quit was we couldn't even get someone to repair PCs in so I ended up having to do it.

Now I look back with regret.
One missed hire shouldn't have been enough to stop him, which I think is why you're getting downvotes.
