Never said it couldn't be done, like the idea, just for me personally I would never want to own it just because of the liability part. I am sick and tired of being pulled into bs suits that I was not responsible for, but got hauled into because an attorney threw out a net and grabbed everyone who had ever set foot on the place an injury occurred. I just wanted him to be aware of that scenario, but if he's good with that go for it.
Not singling you out Jody. I have been self employed for 19 years and started 3 companies from scratch. I got tired of people bringing up obstacles when I was starting my stuff. I say go for it and find somebody that knows how to insure the thing (and you) properly.
