Money Talk with Malik

The Founder's Financial Playbook

What to do with your money before and after you raise

All the energy goes into building the company. Personal finances get ignored. This playbook covers:

  • •83(b) election: 30 days or you're cooked (this one keeps me up at night)
  • •QSBS planning for up to $10M tax-free on exit
  • •Salary vs equity: how much to pay yourself at each stage
  • •Post-exit planning (what to do when the $5M check hits your account)
