Andy Bechtolsheim puts up the first $100,000 Ram Shriram and the rest of the first million (for 10%) For those doing the math, they made around a 5000 % ROI

		<description>My understanding is that Ram was part of that same round. Andy, Ram, David Cheriton (of Stanford) and Jeff Bezos split 10 percent, according to a well-placed source who requests anonymity. I could be mistaken, but Ram probably did better subsequently because he took the director position, and was the only one who rolled up his sleeves and worked on it. That said, I don&#039;t have the exact details, and Google won&#039;t say anything.</description>

		<description>Isn&#039;t Andy Bechtolsheim claiming that &quot;position&quot; thanks to his original $100,000 investment &lt;a href=&quot;http://searchenginewatch.com/searchday/article.php/2160731&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://searchenginewatch.com/searchday/article.php/2160731&lt;/a&gt; in Google, even before the company was incorporated ? Or did he get the same security/terms as Ram and other Series A investors ? Angels taking the initial risk tend to get a better deal through accrued interests or a discounted price for the security they acquire.</description>
