What would someone have to pay you for your business for you not to come to work tomorrow?

When I talk to business owners about the future of their businesses, I often hear about vague plans to "sell someday when the time and the price are right". Unfortunately the plans go no further and I suspect that some business owners wonder if they've already missed good opportunities.

The attached article from http://www.capitalmagazine.ca/ suggests a new way to think about that "someday". The author, the well-respected and knowledgeable John Warrillow, asks how much money someone would have to pay you today for you not to come to work tomorrow. Click here to read the article. I bet it gets you business owners thinking.
