Can you answer thebill’s question about Equity?:

I produce videos for a startup company. I get paid after each finished project. Recently, I got offered to some “equity” but the catch is that my regular paycheck will be reduced. I have an idea what equity actually is but not quite sure how it works. I basically get a certain percentage of the company right and hope the company grows?

I guess my main question is what should I ask the company or what do I need to know before I sign the papers. What’s a good offer and what’s a bad one? Thanks.
