A story of a mid-nineteenth century tells of a man who, upon meeting a friend, told him he was going into business.
" What sort of business ?" the friend asked.
" A Partnership ", the other replied.
" Are you putting in much Capital ?"
" No. I put in no capital. I put in the experience".
" And he puts in the capital, is that it ?"
" Yes. We go into business for three years. He puts in the capital and I put in the experience. At the end of three years, I will have the capital; and he will have the experience".
