I was offered a job yesterday making 75k +- per year to start, plus a potential buyout of one of my ventures ( www.copperworks.net ).

I recently hired a manager who is capable of running my other business in my absence. So I could retain 100% ownership but only draw a tiny salary from my company while it gets back on it's feet and in black, while making around $1500.00 per week from my new job, plus get as much as 200k in buyout to sell my customer database, website and tooling and specialty machinery. I am now one month behind on my mortgage, but have 40k in pending receivables plus 30-50k in the works. I may go without substantial pay until the end of this year. Feast or famine baby.
Seems like a no brainer.

My boss would be a guy named Tony. A one time illegal alien. A Mexican flag hangs in the shop.
Advice please.

I'm not a nine to five guy, so I like being my own boss.  It's up to you.  But I would take the risk and continue by myself.  I dunno, ask for a loan to solve your financial issues until the wheel is again in motion.

do it for sure, unless you think he's going to get deported in the near future.

I am usually not one to advocate forgetting your pride and sucking it up, but you have other responsibilities to remembers. Suck it up for your family.

I figure I can always start over.
I may lose my home if I miss this chance.

Then again, I may go back to pimping it.

When you've gone  from a 700 credit score to an I dontwannaknow and 15k in equity in my home turned into 130k upside down credit is not an option unless you have a rich family member.

This could also be the end of all my illegal alien threads as my hypocrisy only extends so far.

Honestly, he's one illegal in a sea of thousands and he sounds like one of the better ones.

Fixed. He said the guy is "a one time illegal alien", which I'm assuming means he legal now.

Do it, Alex.

I...expected a chorus of voices saying " do it faggot " and  " haha you pwned by an illegal alien ".


Instead what I got was honest advice from people who know as much about my history as any of my rl friends.

BFS, I salute thee. My heart is warmed and once again I am sewn to the community in ways I shall not forget.

Seems reasonable to me.

How much job security can you negotiate in?
I mean, he could take you on at 75k/yr only to find your Spanish is not up to scratch and have to let you go after a week
