Hello, someone wants to pay me equity to build a web application for them as well as mobile apps. They say 10 percent.
Does that seem reasonable?
It’s just he and I, so I’m unsure. I’ve been doing Web Development at a Fortune 500 company for about 3 years now. I’m comfortable across all levels of the stack. I have built my own applications. Only a few with its own UI but I’m comfortable there as I have the meta front end developer courses underneath my belt.
I’m sure I’m proficient based on my job opportunities. Keep in mind that these are applications and not static sites.
98% of equity is worthless. 2% of equity will be worth anything with in 10 years. .01% will be worth a meaningful amount that you can use for let’s say a house down payment.
Let that guide your decision making.
You 5 or 10% of zero is still zero.
