KWERY:I’m going through a divorce, and my wife’s financial expert valued my business at some ridiculous number. The business is not worth anything without me. How do I counter the expert’s number?
RESPONSE:We experts hear the phrase “The business is not worth anything without me” all the time – and the reality is very few businesses are indeed so unique and the owners so special that the business is not worth anything without that owner. You need your own expert – but don’t expect your expert to simply buy your line that without you the business is not worth anything. While it might be true, the valuation process is far more complex than you might think.
