Although Linus denied regretting his decision, he did confirm that a substantial amount had been offered to them at one point.

After Luke, the co-host, jocularly hinted at turning down "the offer," Linus responded:

"No. I don't regret that actually. I worried I would. Did I ever say how much the offer was?"

He continued:

"Well, it wasn't six figures, and it wasn't seven, and it sure as hell wasn't five or under...it wasn't eight either. So that should give you some idea. I have not regretted it for a moment. I think the timing was perfect to take an offer. We were in the midst of an explosive year."

He later explained that he didn't accept the offer because he projected his company to exceed the figure that was put forth on the table.
