Hey Chopra,

Thanks for sharing, this is really inspiring!

Just wondering, for other bootstrappers, if you do end up selling for, I don't know, $200 million letsay, how does that money generally get split? What percentage of the company did you own before selling, and what were the tradeoffs when selling ownership?

The TechCrunch article the OP linked above mentions this:

> Chopra, who owned 71% of Wingify before the acquisition, will retain a minority stake in the firm, one of the sources said.

Thanks
