I'm a consultant and I engage in business feasibilities.

My client's request is for a competent a individual such as yourself, who will be willing to put this money to good use for a period of 6years for a start.
He is offering you these terms:

That is, you do not pay any interest on the money, but you will give him 85% of all profits after tax that will accrue from the use of the fund.
