You are ignoring the risk aspect. There is a chance that it is worth more than they are paying, but there is also a chance it will be worth less.

Selling a part of your business can help spread risk to a new investor reducing your own personal risk.

what I'm saying is the buyers are subject to the same risks, I'm not ignoring them

But obviously an investor with $XYZ under management that can make N bets is better equipped to handle that risk than you, an individual with 1 bet.

fair point :)
