25% of something is a lot more than 100% of nothing

  What's the opportunity cost of working for office manager wages on something you created? The guy offering this deal is a shameless vulture, she should counter (at least) $250K for =<49%.

    I did not see that she had a whole lot of other opportunities, so the opportunity cost is hard to quantify, would she feel happier just closing the business and going and getting another job, maybe but it did not sound like she was ready to do that.

      If someone is offering her $250k for 75%, she can get enough to pay for 6mos from a distribution person to get her product out there. It doesn't sound like the Topps guy is offering anything more than "Yeah, you need distribution. Try calling these three guys," which could certainly wind up getting her more business, but it's not guaranteed results so why give up the farm?
