Since you normally do due-diligence: at what level of information about the project would you be willing to enter into a no-cure, no-pay contract?

That seems like an insanely risky proposition on top of the risk you already assume through consulting, failing company, hiring colleagues as temp workers etc.

This was one on one three hour interview + some email follow up. Having done a lot of DD really helps though, it makes it easier to get the bigger picture clear in a hurry.

That said, there were quite a few details that made this project harder than it should have been.
