Wait.
Are you sure that it makes sense to just give up on a billion dollars because the folks you are doing business with, (who happen to make astronomically more than you do from your efforts) claim they do not make enough money?
In case you have missed everything about business.... ever.... Collecting more money for ownership most certainly does not translate to an equal amount re-invested. It does not even guarantee any added re-investment.
What you can count on is a higher amount of money going into owners' pockets.
There is no way they get higher gross without keeping a percentage of that increase.
I don't think you believe that is a wise business decision. I think you have your side and will, under any circumstances, back your "side".
Let's test the theory....
You are in construction, correct?
If the builder comes to you and says that he is not making enough money from his part in your dealings, do you just gleefully accept any financial cuts he demands. or do you have something more to say than that?
Also, if he insists that you have to do an extra job each month, without getting an extra payment for that work, you down with that too?
You just trust that he has your best interests at heart and the concessions will actually mean better profits for you down the road...... somehow?
I bet you are not so quick to make such a financial sacrifice, without exploring all options.
