Joint Venture means that 2 or more people joining together who both have something of equal value to offer.

For example A Guy has a nice dive boat but has no divers or is struggling to make ends meet, along comes a guy who has lots of dive enquiries but does not have a dive boat, they both have something of value to offer and by working together they both win.

Joint Venture should mean a WIN WIN situation

Investors is other peoples money VERY VERY different
