Warning checklist: Ask yourself repeatedly, "I'm giving out my valuable idea, which I protected so long." Let's consider a premise now: Say you gave your idea to him, i.e you sold it off full! (Don't forget you have to convince him hard to win, so you literally sold the whole idea, the strategy and all) Followup: Now, say he rejects your idea, are you fine that your once great idea/side-project being sold or ripped off? If you believe much in yourself and your idea, then don't apply, keep all the equity to yourself and find a better co-founder in your niche.
