Tough Spot. Need a few honest opinions
I realize that some stuff here on the board, I'm kinda a jerk. I expect at least one first post, and some other nonsense, but I'm mystified at this situation, and need to know what other people (who aren't close to this situation) to tell me if I'm a bad person, or not.
Being an avid horse fanatic, I have had the opportunity to purchase an amazing Arabian horse. She's got perfect lines, amazing physique, and will have offspring that are amazing. She's been appraised at around $40,000. I've been given the opportunity to purchase this horse for $10,000. I work for trade at the stables, I muck stalls and do basic farmhand work, they let me ride, I really enjoy the freedom of going for a ride. Her owners love me, and want to bless me with a gift.
I also owe my father about $10,000 grand. I offered my dad, today a business proposition. Drop the $10,000 grand debt against me, and buy 25% of the horse, (since she's worth 40k) as a full owner, and we make a killing on the arabian market.
Here's the question: Am I a bad person for asking my father to pay for 100% of the horse, yet only give him 25% of the profit?
