He&#x27;s got dollar signs in his eyes, and he&#x27;s hoping to use people&#x27;s desperation for investor money to lower their guard.<p>Wild guess: He&#x27;s going to sell you management consulting, in which he tells you all the money you can save by outsourcing your software development. Any &#x27;seed funding&#x27; he gives will be eaten up by a deal with him and somebody he knows, who will play the software developer. When that runs out, you&#x27;ll look for additional funding and spend it on his buddy who shares a cut with him. He might get a share of the company, but I don&#x27;t think he cares about it.
