Either publish your ideas as proof of concepts and encourage others to take over (with no shares for you) or prepare better (don't plan just code, plan execution - how much time will you spend after work & discuss with your wife) or make sure that you have cash for 6-12 months and your wife is ready for 4 years of struggle (and I'm serious about the amounts of time I mentioned) What won't work - finding somebody more motivated and giving him 80%... if you have 20% then you will be a cofounder and long nights and plenty of work will be required of you. Also getting money an hiring people won't work - as a CEO you will still have plenty of work and it will be even harder because you will need to coordinate their work - if your wife tells you to go to bed then you cannot finish that spec for a designer and he will not do his job. One or two times like that and you will lose speed. Finally, a thing that helps - having users (and paid users even more). Get stuff out of the door as fast as possible. Asap = 2 weeks if we're talking software.
