So the other question, is how would you or they feel if you didn't take the money, took money from another inverstor and became successful? Would they feel bad that you refused their money when offered in good faith?

That is exactly what my other reservation is ... my Dad especially would be too proud to invest after success at anything below the current valuation of the company (which could obviously be very high at that point) because he would feel like someone was giving him something and he is a man who works hard for everything he has made and simply does not believe in handouts. I would feel terrible if I took money from an outside VC and the company grew to even a $10-20M valuation knowing he could have gotten his money back tenfold but I would not let him.
