thinking of giving away equity, please comment.

[theBiz]

I am thinking of giving away a small percentage + salary for a programmer. One of my businesses (half offline, half online) is making good money. I want to go bigger and i know it will work. I know my target market and everything necessary has been learned except internet tools, im OK but still in a big learning curve.

I will never be the best programmer, internet marketer, bla bla, and i have always said do what you know best. I am a good business starter and runner, i am thinking of hiring someone and giving them equity, I've never given equity away BTW. If we expand online, the company can make alot of money so IMO a small percentage means nothing. Here is my plan.

I am in NY by Manhattan where there is a great abundance of smart and driven people. I am thinking of getting in to a tech college and interviewing the graduate class, take pictures, write down info, blah blah. I will then go home and make an educated decision on who will come on board.


What do you all think? What to watch out for, random costs to watch out for?

What do you all think of my strategy, like i said i'm making money right now and have reserved capital so if someone was to come on board money would be spent and tasks will start immediately.
