I'm not asking much above actual cash I've spent all in the last 6 months. There's no reason why I should take a loss for something I didn't initiate. If he wants to interrupt my progress, he can assume my accumulated position & do everything possible to keep me on the trajectory I've worked hard & paid actual cash to establish. If I attached a labor rate to all the work I've done, the number would be much higher, I'm positioned at just my cash outlays. Is what you're saying by working with him that I should be willing to dip into my pocket to make this work for him?
