We're dividing up the company between three cofounders and about to make our first hires, and I'm signing things I don't really understand. Someone says "cap table" and I just agree, because admitting I'm lost feels worse. This is my ownership, my future, and I'm making it up as I go.
More people experience this than they realize.
You're dividing up ownership without understanding how any of it works.
