I was in a favorable position in that my old boss was courting me into a full time job at my old place, so I had a lot of leverage when negotiating. I want you to feel that way too, because I read someone's comment about their first job always sucking, well I don't think that has to be true. Figure out what it will take for you to commit yourself, let your skills be known, and let him make you an offer. I would only want you to be a part of this if you're satisfied.
I look at your time at the SEC as a big asset. Its one thing to analyze a company from the outside, its another to be a part of the day to day growth, to become a part of the viability and experience it. Even if it fails, thats a tremendous learning experience. The major value in this prospect is the growth potential I say, and its making a business contact with another entrepreneur. So, this company only happens to be the current project, we've already talked about after this company.
And besides, you'll get to see first-hand the crazy shit I can do with computers, but if there is a better offer, by all means go for it.
