Correct.

I feel your pain, and have went through the same problem trying to balance out the pros & cons because those interested are always looking to learn everything they can, and split off to their own thing ASAP.

My lawyer recommended the above. Illiminating them from being able to steal property, compete against you in the same niche/market, or learn everything they can and run.

My main concern was spending all the time to train someone, just to have them leave as soon as they learn the ropes. The agreement solved that. It pretty much illiminated all the other sharks who's motivations were to just use you for what they could get, and go build their empire.
