Net another adviser

I feel like an ice fisherman who is looking for a big fish but keeps getting the little minnows. I call Andrew to thank him for talking with me. I also ask him for an introduction to the company in France which has my name. While we are chatting, I ask him if he would like to be my adviser. Andrew says yes but he wants a piece of my company. My company is valued at around 800,000 euros.. mainly because I wrote that hefty business plan and everyone likes it so much. So I have a plan worth almost a million Euros but no cash.... talk about being asset rich and cash poor.

I decide to give Andrew a percentage of my company based on the valuation of 800,000 Euros... so now I have a lawyer, a consultant and an executive director as advisers... that nursery rhyme keeps coming to mind... would all three sit in a tub and let me take a photo?

Rub a dub dub,
Three men in a tub;
And who do you think they be?
The butcher, the baker,
The candlestick-maker;
Turn 'em out, knaves all three!
Rub-a-dub-dub,
Three men in a tub,
And how do you think they got there?
The butcher, the baker,
The candlestick-maker,
They all jumped out of a rotten potato,
'Twas enough to make a man stare.
