[QUOTE="Jon75, post: 3077076, member: 58382"] Peer to peer lending and crowd funding will become more popular and more important to all kinds of business start ups in the future in my humble opinion. You mention your FIL. My MIL is forever moaning about the crappy interest rates offered by the banks and who can blame her. They worked hard all their life, paid off their mortgage, raised a couple of kids and are now looking to enjoy their retirement. You can't blame them for looking to get a fair return on the bit of cash they have banked. I honestly believe there is potential here for others to invest in British farming and beat the banks and even do their bit for the UK economy. Whether the Brexit result was right or wrong, in my mind going forward Brits need to pay more attention to an essential industry like farming, but I'm sick to the back teeth of discussing Brexit so that's all I'll say on that matter!!! :) Anyway, we'll let this experiment run it's course and then I can asses losses and actual sales results and see where we are. I need to ensure that he's bang on with his costs and has not solved himself short too. I'm a big believer that everyone should agree on and enjoy a fair slice of the pie. Get that right and set everyone's expectations and I think it will be ok. I can't help thinking there is opportunity to involve other small scale private investors though. At least those with a fair appetite for risk anyway. [/QUOTE]
