Re: [dcphp-dev] Technical Angels

I think working solely for equity is too risky, at least for my
tastes. I think it'd be difficult to bound when you've "put in enough"
and be able to step away from the project gracefully. Maybe some
combination of $$$ + equity could work, if you can tolerate the risk.
But to be a successful anger, from that I understand, is really a
numbers game. You want to invest a little in a lot of start ups so
when one of them makes it you get rewarded. Not sure that model really
translates when what you are putting in is your time and not money.
The former being more limited than the latter.
