It is nicer to use than a regular chlorine hot tub especially on your skin but I don't know if the maintenance is any better or worse, personally.

The further you get into the deal the more skin in the game you end up having so it just makes sure you see the project through so you recoup the time and cash invested. 

File for eviction in court.There are many ways to skin the cat, as discussed in my book.

Yes, we pay a fee for the coaching, that many of us feel is fully worth the cost, maybe having "skin-in-game" makes us more likely to take action and be excited about the company, but that is for you to decide. 

GP's typically have to put skin on the game.

I also want high skin in the game, conservative leverage and reasonable fees.Open-door isn't a match for me (and an easy "no") because they don't have that type of experience.

Keep in mind, if you're not making money, they aren't either, so they have "skin in the game".

@Stuart UdisAll great comments, seems like putting skin in the game will be a reassuring factor for any potential investors.

And you can also buy them when they're beaten down and underpriced due to market overreactions like currently, due to rapid rise in US 10yr rate.I've read and watched multiple Good Egg offerings and they are typical of many feeder funds and to be fair like many primary GP/syndicators as well for both taking on unnecessary risks and also charging confiscatory fees, as #1 they have no skin in the game and #2 they get a big cut up front whether project fails or not, find GPs that are investing >10-15% of their own cash into every deal.good luck and sorry this happenedlooks like they are a fund of funds setting up crowdfunding to invest in other offerings.

The deposit amount when working with a lender comes from the lender - it is basically the amount of skin the lender wants you to have in the game.
