Need Advice with Partner

[Ben Adams]

So I seem to have gotten myself in a pickle. I have just started on a fastlane road and I saw that one of my old hs friends had recently started a business selling smoking pieces online. I messaged him about it and told him I had a business idea which was to mix ingredient x and y and sell it as a supplement. He said that he uses ingredient y all the time and said he was separately thinking of mixing it with ingredient z.

At that point we decided to team up to try and make it happen, and I wrote out a whole formula with multiple ingredients and dosages as a rough draft. I later came up with a name and 3 other possible formulas to also use. At this point i'm realizing that he really knows nothing about supplements, and although he and his brother were able to start a business that he claims is profitable, I started to get worried that our visions don't really match up. He then says that his brother is in on it too and we split it 30/30/40 with me getting 40.

Funnily enough, i'm at the part about partner in Millionaire Fastlane and that started to really worry me.

So my issue is that I really don't want a partner anymore as the business experience that they bring to the table, I should be learning to do that myself. The idea was mine and I wrote up the formulas, and I'll even take out the only ingredient he suggested if it would help.

I'm not sure how to bring this up to him and i'm worried that he'll say that I can't do this because the idea is shared. Keep in mind this all occured in two days and he has not actually done anything yet for the business.

Any advice would be appreciated, if you want to call me an idiot go for it because that's still valuable info to know and I probably am an idiot for trying to take on a partner so quickly, thanks
