If it’s significantly above their personal expenses and you are uncomfortable with it, I would ask myself if they are cofounders or employees.
You should have a candid conversation about what the seed money is for. It could be the case that they never considered your perspective, and this is a good opportunity to get aligned on the topic.
Side note, salary disparities between cofounders are a potential future source of resentment.
- nh2121 4y agoThank you for taking the time to share your perspective! Are they co-founders or employees? That's the key question. You are right though – perhaps they have not considered my perspective. And vice versa. I might be missing something as well. I will take your advice into consideration when I talk to them about it.
