I see alot of people here slamming partnerships. I think that is a little harsh. You must consider the parameters of the partnership ahead of time or modify the relationship to make it worth the time to both of you. A partnership is TWO people working together to help one another. I have a friend and we split a shop/storage. I do my work, he does his work. If he needs help, I help him and get paid. If I need help. he helps me and gets paid. It is a much more floating relationship other than the agreement on the share paid for on the shop. In my opinion, an ongoing, never ending 50/50 split on income is a little unreasonable, but there still may be a compromise that benefits you both. Perhaps a job that would be better worked with two could be split, but ongoing scrapping could be handled by each on their own without creating any ill will.
