Have/would you ever give up salary to fund something you think will be good for the company?

Is it ever wise to offer to divert some of your personal salary (pre tax) towards helping fund a partnership/investment that your exec team/board rejects, but that you feel pretty certain will have a significant impact on the valuation of the company?
What if the diverted salary could be reimbursed in (pre-ipo) equity?

That being said, only exception would be when you have a liquidity event coming up very soon and you strongly believe it will impact the immediate value of *your* shares, by some significant percent, and this is more than an opinion or “feeling”.
