I wish you addressed your original hypothesis with concrete examples (is this fair, does being early matter, is it clear)
Eg, you gave equity to early contributors, how much and what did that translate to? If those same people work as freelance now, are they paid the same relative equity? Same class?
How long would someone allocating to equity need to work before they see the equivalent in dividends? Calculator seems like 25 years. Or working as more or less full time for 12 years with a 50% split.
For me by the end I was left with more questions than answers, so I side with mom, but I like the general idea of https://flexile.com/ https://flexile.com/
- greenie_beans 2y agowhy would this platform need to have the answers to those questions? i would guess that all of those questions should be left up to each individual company. that is something to be figured out by the company, not the platform. it seems like flexile is simply a platform for facilitating those types of labor agreements. i doubt they want to be opinionated about all of that, and i think they shouldn't be. the platform is a system to make those deals easier, regardless of how the equity is structured etc. at least, this is my hope as a broke ass peasant who invested in gumroad's "funding" offering, and also as somebody who sees this tool as a simple way to facilitate alternative labor relationships.
- greenie_beans 2y agooh wait i misread your questions. thought you were like, "how does this work at the cap table" or whatever
