Ask HN: Should I feel pissed-off at having to pay double?

To quote:
I am a software engineer from a top 5 school and more than 10 years of experience with a couple of blue chip software companies and one billion dollar exit from a pre-IPO joining.
I have a deep passion for health empowerment, diagnostics, biohacking, and natural healing.
I also happen to know a good deal about the terminology and mechanisms pertaining to medical practices and procedures.
I would like to bounce some ideas off some MDs with whom I would eventually want to bring on as co-founders or as part of a medical advisory board. These folks would help me with product management and product marketing as well as add legitimacy to my enterprise.
The ideas are mostly software based, but some of them may involve a bit of custom hardware and/or hardware integration with medical devices.
How would I go about networking with such potential cofounders with the said qualifications and credentials?
Is it likely that a doctor would forgo a 300-500k salary to work at my startup for 20% equity?
