Interesting take! I always avoided working with friends, we both end up feeling like we owe something to the other. Besides I am not comfortable arguing with a friend if something goes wrong. I try to avoid mixing business with friendship. However, as you said if you are both great at what you do, and you can add value to each other then be it. It's great. But when only one party is adding value that's where it goes downhill in my opinion. Thank you for posting this.
