Interesting conversation. I strongly disagree. Owning shares in a company !== owning shares in a person. That's called "Slavery". I assume your intentions are honorable, but there's likely a good reason to abstract investment to an entity which cannot die

Companies = persons, just formed as a legal entity, which I see as a useless middle man for me as an investors

Show me the future of investing, dont be afraid to have money thrown at you directly

YOU are the companie in the end

Slavery historically did not involve negotiations, so it is a bold statement to compare my question to slavery as a concept

I also did not say owning shares of companies = owning shares of a person

I said companies are persons, formed as a legal entity

If persons would be willing to directly let money be thrown at them in exchange for "a share of their income" they should be free to do so

Not being able to do so is closer to slavery than the idea of doing so itself

legal entities are a social construct after all

with benefits of course, and good reasons to have them

does not mean we have to stick to it though, there are cases where it would make much more sense for me to directly invest in persons if they agree

Open to the possibility of improvement on the current situation. Quite sure that I personally would never accept such an offer of investment. What happens when the living person you own a revenue share in stops working? Or waived a salary? This sounds bad.

Right, I have no answers for that in detail - that is why I asked the question and said "Show me the future"

Let's wait for @255 he seems to have something planned. There has to be a way to do this via Bitcoin, the rest is negotiation and risk management

Question, Deggen, just brainstorming/example:

Someone gives you 50k in exchange for a 1% of your personal (!) yearly income for 5 years (just an example!)

You have no risk, he has it, but you have more money to scale/accelerate your work/ideas

Why not?
