Ask HN: I'm lost. Please help
This situation is actually very simple, don't let it feel overcomplicated:<p>Tell them you need an actual salary and actual health insurance in the next 30 days. If the venture can pay you to keep at it, that's great. Otherwise you'll have to start looking around for a real job in a couple of weeks. Even the most brick-and-mortar type of businessperson will completely understand this.<p>Stick to your schedule. It will either work out or it won't.<p>If it doesn't, no hard feelings.
