Hellobee Boards

My siblings yes.
My BIL who passed away, yes. We actually talked about it for a while. The current BIL that is still alive...no.

My sister, yes. My brother.... maybe.

Absolutely, positively not. My sister and I get along okay most of the time but she is terrible at working with other people (unless they're strangers..she's professional in her work environment, just not with people she knows like family), answering/returning calls, being considerate of other people's time and effort, etc.

I think in general it's a risky idea to go into business with friends and family. Before I would ever do it there would have to be strict legal parameters established to protect everyone involved. I've seen these types of business ventures go horribly, horribly wrong.

Absolutely not, not because they are family but because our personalities would butt heads way too much. We would survive a year of business together! Neither of my sisters are "leaders" and I have a feeling 90% of the responsibility would land on me, and I think this would cause some resentment.

Nope. I don’t believe in engaging in any business dealings with family or friends. Too often things go wrong, and close relationships are ruined. I keep business and personal separate.

100% yes with my brother. We get along really well, and we think the same way. Oh yeah, and he's incredibly smart and successful. My husband's sister.... probably not. Not because she's not smart or good with money, but just because I think we think differently and would probably often disagree on the best course of action.

No way! I love my siblings to death, but that would be a recipe for a nightmare

no way in hell, but if my siblings were different, I would consider it.

@chopsuey119: that is exciting!!

I could never do it. My brother and I have never seen eye to eye on anything in our lives. We are way too different to be able to do anything together.
