Life is business. Even though my friend @vwovwe will not agree to this.
I've always been business tasty and craving for opportunities to affect lives. I initiated and created a blogspot back in 2012. In 2013 I partnered with a school based blog and several other firms to host and offer awards to rising stars.
In 2015, I launched my music label and have been in business ever since. Just as if that wasn't enough, I discovered that several artistes needed my management skills but couldn't approach me because they noticed I was dedicated to my label.
But this artistes needed my service, so I launched my Artiste Management Company.
One thing I never experienced while running this business is the pain of running business with a friend. I never allowed friendship or sentiment control my decisions.
But just few months and recently days ago, I discovered how evil peoples mind are. They walk behind the shadow of friendship to play on our emotions.
@mrfelix came telling me of a friend who has sued him for accusing him of taking a loan from @mrfelix. Felix gave 100SBD worth of loan to this dude with no legal documents all in the name of friendship and today hjs friend has totally denied having such a transaction with him.
Friends are threats in business as they find it difficult to stick to deals. Don't give loan to a friend without a written legal document.
Have you ever recieved some level of financial freedom on steemit?
Do you belief the steem blockchain can wipe away poverty in the world?
Then join me as I wage a steem war against poverty
This reminds me of the Greek Proverb that says "Eat and drink with your relatives; do business with strangers."
Family and friends should learn to support friends and family in their business. Patronize them by paying for services. That is the only way they survive. Thanks for sharing.
Truly friends are threats in businesses. I really dont understand why close people find it difficult to stick to deals. Written legal document will make deals more serious instead of people taking it for granted
