person A: What was the opportunity?
person B: He said that he had a house that needed to be flipped_comma_ but he couldn't afford the renovations.  He would split the money with me when it sold if I would fund the renovation.  It was supposed to be $200_comma_000 to split_comma_ but guess what?  He left town and I have no idea where he is.
person A: Did you put money on the reno?
person B: Yup_comma_ I gave him $100_comma_000 up front.
person A: Haha_comma_ that wasn't very wise.
