As small as possible, and wrap it up with a good lawyer. I trust a business partner about as far as I can throw them. As soon as a lot of money gets involved people get funny, even family members can't be trusted.
In my experiance they will screw you the first chance they get, so don't give them that chance.
Also in my experiance he who writes the checks tends to have control. I have learned the hard way to never, never give that up. I will never enter into a partnership again that I don't control the checkbook and books. They can review it, but I will not give up control.
Remember people who make a lot of money tend to be SOB's in business. They wouldn't think twice of stabbing a partner in the back if its a good business move. Thats how you get ahead.
