Whatever the reasons, good for him (and it is very likely that he already owns some equity so he gains even if xobni gets bought out later though not so much).

- vlad 18y agoI could be wrong but I thought he was the third member of the company, and also given a founders stake. I'm sure they worked something out to mutual benefit.
- gscott 18y agoHe mentions he is taking some substantial time off, likely he sold his equity to others in the company and will live off of that for awhile. It is a hard transition from a "scrappy start-up" to a more mature start-up. I could imagine at one point he is super important, in every meeting, helping direct the focus of every little thing, then as the company expands you get pushed out to the side a little and treated more like an employee. The fact is he was/is an employee, but it is hard to not think of yourself as a little more then that when you have had so much involvement for so long.
