All compensations are risk + skills adjusted (a technical term is expected return). With lower risk you must sacrifice possibility of higher reward and vice versa. This universal law is not broken by FANG or anyone else. FANG is not better risk adjusted and there is nothing special about their compensation.
If you are young and blessed with no dependencies, you should attempt exploiting higher risk domains. As you get older with more dependencies, you need to lower your risk tolerance. The technical term for this is exploration vs exploitation. The maximum payouts in many complex system requires some balance between two and sticking with just exploitation is often not the optimal policy when you look at life span as a whole.
