> but you wanted to believe they were something else Well many times a founder will do this knowingly to get/keep someone who has other options like much better salary elsewhere, etc. Not saying it's wrong approach, but have also seen the resentment the original "hustler" has later when this "co-founder" doesn't have the same drive. E.g. thinking "It's not fair", etc. even though they were desperate for the help when they had little money.
