Joining a team later as a co-founder
jacquesm: Whether or not an even split is still to be expected depends on a few factors, such as how long they're busy, what their outlay was and their compensation to date vs yours.If they've been busy for a while and they've passed through one or more cusps would mean that your risks are reduced, on the other hand if this start up is two weeks old then I'd lean towards an even split, depending on what you bring and whether or not the others have 'an even split'.If you're being approached then that would be based on reputation and talent, have a long hard look at the business case and if you believe in it then you can weigh your options.Make sure if you have a s.o. that they're on board, start up life can be pretty stressful.Best of luck.
