Any fixed amount of money doesn't if it is real friendship. On the other hand, an ongoing business will eventually ruin any friendship, especially in these days. This will always be true if this business partnership was based on friendship. Then again, if it is the other way around, a friendship that was based on business partnership, then it is mean to last. As a matter of fact, it will be something great, because friends/ business associates can accomplish great things. So do you think that money can ruin friendship?

I don't think any amount of money can come between TRUE friends . A friendship based solely on an amount of personal interest would end up one person deceiving the other and taking all the money if the business was started as a partnership venture

In my opinion, money can ruin a good friendship especially if the ground rules and expectations are not set when going into a joint business venture. They said `Money is the root of all evil'. And I believe that we must never let money to become an issue and if it is going be, then we should refrain from going into the venture at the expense of a good friendship.

Friendship can be destroyed if each person can not control the ego with the balance. That can happen in every case, including business partnerships. Go balanced!

money itself will not ruin any friendship or relationship. It is the greed on human nature that will ruin everything in life. Beside greed, jealousy also another killing factor. All I could say is, if we appreciate our friends, family and others, we will not be ruining friendship and relationship that way... Happy MyLotting
