10% of a BIG deal or 100% of a small deal?

[Ryan Sajdera]

Hey BP,

I wanted to see what everyone's school of thought on partnerships were. Do you think its more beneficial to fully own and control a smaller deal or put your money into a larger deal with a smaller ownership percentage?   I've been hearing a lot of debate from other investors- some say they like the full control, some prefer to spread ownership over a lot of different deals. What is your opinion and why??

Hi Ryan,

For me personally, I like control. No one will care more about my money than me.  It's more work and certainly harder to accomplish but I sleep real good knowing who I am in business with.  I am not against partnerships. Just have enough money vested so if things go South it doesn't affect your life.
