As a holder of a significant amount of land, I have to say I am voting no without a few key things being added.
How does the DAO earn this money back? Maybe we need to make a plan here. Revenue from land. How will that revenue be made, how much will go to the DAO, and ETA to recover funds? Or maybe this should be a loan?
If the DAO finances this, the DAO needs to scope it and have a timeline made, likely with progress payments based on work completed (or maybe bonuses for being early and penalties for being late).
And I also feel compromises should be made. The pay is in line with other highly paid developers, but when my company struggles I have to take a pay cut. I am not saying he is not worth that amount or that pay cuts should be on him. But we need to be responsible. maybe there is a way to keep the hourly down?
ALSO, if we are paying him for 40 hour weeks, does that mean all his focus will be land?
Clarification and transparency, how much of that $90/hour is going directly to him? Is the DAO paying him directly the funds or are we paying Splinterlands who in turn will be paying him? I know paying employees comes with costs. If I pay my employee $1000, it probably cost me $1300ish, etc.
If the wallet address is not his, I think it is fair the DAO knows what percentage is going to him.
