So 200K buys you an affiliate site and Theo Paphitis gets fleeced

Yesterday I heard one of the fuinniest things in ages - Theo Paphitis paid 200 grand for 30% of an affiliate site. Colin sat and told me this while I looked on in awe - I thought he was making it up. I dont know if it was a rush of blood to the head of Mr Paphitis or a cunning ploy by a couple of shysters to get money out of him. Anyway this made me happy as the money I lost on Scotland against Georgia now looks like small potatoes compared to this.

Other people have been blogging about this also:

So for once I’m not alone it thinking that the worlds gone mad - am off to build a site, develop a widget and sell the whole bloody thing off and retire to St Kitts
