I don't understand how Thiel was able to buy his PayPal shares using a Roth. I thought you aren't allowed use your Roth to invest in a company you work for.

Can someone who knows more than me explain where I am wrong?

He was originally a big investor not a founder (or at least set it up to look that way)
