> wanted an 80/20 equity split in his favor.

If they're so confident in their value they should just find some money and pay for the development of the product to a freelancer or employee.



They may be a little surprised how much that costs. And then the running of it and the bug fixing and the feature expansion. It may be a little… “surprising”. My advice is to get idea guy to price it out haha.


they are so confident they are offering to pay with 20% of equity (basically vapor), instead of hard cash.

imagine the chutzpah
