I do have some RSUs, but no real way of knowing how much they’ll be worth, if anything. I don’t get to see a cap table, nor am I privy to the investors’ term sheet to know what their overhang is.

Stock options used to be an enticing form of ownership, now it’s a crapshoot: you’re gambling that you won’t get screwed.

But all of that is beside the point. When I (and presumably the original poster) are talking about ownership, we mean the sense of originating and creating the thing we’re building, not just owning the material benefit from it.
