RE IS probably for him as significantly less time is spent per $ earned! 

Not if one wants to make 100%+ on the cash invested, which is doable (but rare) if one values ones time at 0.

Hi, here is why rationally yes:

you have 100K and can make 100% a year when investing in a business you work almost full time at.

2 options:

- put the entire 100K in the business, work there and make 100K in a year

OR

- take 100K private money loan 15% interest (worse case!), make 100K-15K=85K a year Plus buy say 8 plex somewhere with around 100K down.

Kirk, what would you prefer?

Rgds,
