Well, apart from the tactic of mailing the keys back to the bank that financed 95% of the acquisition cost of the now irretrievably broken machine, I don't get it. This assumes you've paid yourself or your girl friend the cash flow and didn't give any personal guaranties.

It's a model that's used quite successfully in the real estate and shipping business.

Lawrence, Lawrence, Lawrence,
The answer to your question is easy if you remember Will Rogers' famous quote: "If a stock goes down, just don't buy it" (or some such thing). If the machine breaks after two years, don't buy it!

It hardly takes a genius....)
