Yes, very interesting, scaredy. The great majority of people who get into film investing do not make a profit, and we would never have gotten in at the blockbuster investment level without my wife’s connections.
Initially, friends came to my wife with proposals for our investing group. As an example, even with studio support, the principals were seeking millions from private investors when they made Avatar, and it has snowballed from there, but our situation is far from the norm.
