It depends. Most aren't "given" anything. They have to buy in like everyone else. They're just allowed to at a certain level. Only time I've seen something like that at all, and it's not really the same, is when a broker has rolled their fee into an equity share in the deal. And that's only if the GP and broker are like, best friends. And possibly married one anothers' sisters.

 

I've seen exceptions to "only directors" but only if you were a critical member of the founding team. They might throw you a bone.

Have compassion as well as ambition and you’ll go far in life. I am interested in digital immortality. Check out my blog at digitalimmortality.com
