I'd be curious to see if there are stats on failed companies vs. the equity split.
At times when I read these articles a lot of it seems very anecdotal, and I'm inclined to just be like "whatever the hell feels right" lol. I think the most important thing to take away from this is to agree on terms, make it in writing, and set everyone's expectations from the get go.
I mean come on, he has a bad experience, which he doesn't really even elaborate why/if it's even related to a 50/50 split. Could it be that he and his co-founder just didn't fit and they found out 6 months later? Would a 60/40 or whatever else split have mitigated that?
Perhaps I will eat my words in the future, but I'm equal split w/ my co-founder and I feel like we have arguments every week, but we always strive to resolve them and to move forward with what we feel is best. In my head I just can't figure out how negotiating a "better split" would somehow help a relationship.
