#RadicalOwnership

I didn't just turn down a raise. I turned down CERTAINTY. Last Tuesday my CFO slid a number across the table that would've made my college roommate weep with envy. I looked him dead in the eye and said four words: "Give me the EQUITY." He blinked. I smiled. Was it terrifying? Absolutely. I cried in my car for eleven minutes and then journaled about it for forty-five. But here's what I know about VISIONARIES. We don't collect paychecks. We collect POSSIBILITY. Everyone said I was Crazy. Everyone said I was Reckless. Everyone is now asking me for intros. Comfort is the most expensive thing you will ever buy. And I refuse to pay FULL PRICE.

Okay but also not sure about this — I follow someone who structured the exact same equity deal after their raise conversation stalled and they 10x’d their upside within a year.
