Er... I am!
I advertised last year on that basis.
All for one, one for all; everything in, 50% out each.
This is the *honourable* way to do it. Fairness or otherwise doesn't
come to it.
Like you, I built up a practice from the Jurasic age to the 20C, list

That did not stop me from offering a full and equal partnership.
It's a bit like asking the woman whom you're marrying to pay for all the
presents you bought your ex-girlfriend years back. Nonono.

No, we are not. At least I am not; but then again, I am anodd bod
;-). As for buying in of the bricks and mortar, well, it is usually a
case of shifting the borrowing from one place to another. My job spec
said that buying in is optional and can be effected at a time that
suited both parties. That is that!

Did you know that I nearly applied for that Practice! A dear friend of
mine lived there, he was the Oncologist for Lincoln/Grantham. Went to
Sleaford to visit them and they tried to persuade me to go for it so
that we can be near! He then buggered off to Victoria Island,
Vancouver!
