I already cashed out with a good deal, got screwed (not with hold back), now
cashing back in. :-)

| Take a point or two less up front and cash out. Don't screw around with a
| hold back because you won't get it. If you didn't loose the customer for
| years prior to the sale and than the customer goes south because the new
| company screwed up the account, you loose on the hold back. Negotiate it
up
| front, because chances are the new company cannot handle a certain
| percentage of your clientel anyway. It is false hope. The buyer either
takes
| or leaves the whole thing under your terms. Some one out there will play
by
| your rules. If you have to sell, the table favors the buyer, but if you
| don't have to sell, the table is yours, so run it. Every month you keep it
| is to your benefit.
