Stuck with shares
After 7+ years decided to leave a startup I co-founded. Reasons: we were going nowhere, lack of strong leadership, internal disputes and burnout. Felt a relieve I have not felt in those 7+ years and, therefore, I think it was one of the best decisions of my life. The problem is that I am stuck with a significant amount of shares and cannot liquidate them. My concern is that company might go bankrupt sometime in 6 months and I will be left with nothing. I am looking for smart ways to sell my vested shares. The issue is that no current investor is interested as I have a feeling they also do not believe in company’s success. There is an upcoming investment round but I doubt the new investor will want to buy my part.
What can I do in this situation?
