serious life lesson here. Unless you have a lot of money now, take the 14m and run! I am 40+ now, but at 23 I was offered £5m for a business. I tuned if down because I would have to wear a suit and goto a stuffy office in a 2-year lock-in. I turned it down and lost the lot. I was a total idiot looking back on it now. You are better to have something than nothing at all. With £14m you can come up with the next great idea, and you still have a few million left over!
