Hi all. I know this guy (in-law) running a business terribly wrong, great idea but the man is lazy as hell. I know the market he is in quite well and know if you put some money and hard work in to the business you can easily make $ 8,000-00 per month on a passive contract (min 12 months contract). Now. ..I am in 2 minds (leaning towards ruthless), do I just keep with my usual business I have now and let this idea rest or do I start up a second company and run this business the same way I currently run business 1? I mean the right way ( you know, very little sleep, loads of stress, almost NO rest, and Profitable). The ethical thing to do would be to give advice to said other person (I have a feeling it wouldn't even be taken seriously as I tried before) or; I get my other business up and running asap (quietly) and knock this bitch out the park? Im not poor but sure as hell not in a position to own a couple of properties and fancy cars. Ps: I won't compete with the other bloke as he is just screwing around any case with no real effort to progressively build his business. Cheers from a sunny South - Africa
