Shakespeare was THE great observer of human behaviour. What HE saw we still see today and its usually full of drama. I am no particular fan but always self employed and I have often been witness to the type of scenario. A wayward cousin of mine brought his father's family firm to its knees by extravagant living then big errors of judgement, before finally being ousted by his elder sister. My uncle lost his pension and was forced to downsize his house, the firm eventually sold on to a responsible manager. My own lessons taught me NEVER to put 100% trust in a business partner however close the relationship.
