A 1917 article by William D. Isham, credit manager of the Harley-Davidson Motor Co., explained about business partnerships:
 
“We have all heard of the man who went into business with a partner, he going in with the money, his partner putting up the experience. After he had been in business a short time, the partnership was dissolved, the man with the money came out with the experience, and the man who went in with the experience came out with the money.”
 
American automotive executive William Knudsen (1879-1948), who served as Lieutenant General in the United States Army to help build equipment for World War II, was approached by a senator who wanted factories in his district. The senator was influential and could come up with money, but his district was totally inexperienced with having such factories. “When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with the experience gets the money, and the man with the money gets the experience,” Knudson is credited with saying.
 
American businessman Leonard Lauder said in February 1985, “When a person with experience meets a person with money, the person with experience will get the money. And the person with the money will get some experience.” Paul Dickson’s The New Official Rules (1989) called this “Lauder’s Law.”
 
American investor Warren Buffett also used the maxim, saying, “When someone with experience proposes a deal to someone with money, too often the fellow with money ends up with the experience, and the fellow with experience ends up with the money.”
   
   
Wikipedia: William S. Knudsen
William Signius Knudsen (March 25, 1879 – April 27, 1948) was a leading automotive industry executive. His experience and success as a key senior manager in the operations sides of Ford Motor Company and later General Motors led the Franklin Roosevelt Administration to commission him as a Lieutenant General in the United States Army to help lead the United States’ war materiel production efforts for World War II.

ASIDE TO THE many, who’ve announced their intentions of joining the ranks of B’way producers, offering nothing but plenty of dough:  The late William Knudsen gave some sound advice to a senator who was trying to get war contracts for several constituents. The legislator admitted his clients didn’t have any experience in making planes or ships, but had loads of lucre. “I’ve noticed,” observed General Knudsen, a captain of industry in civilian life, “that when a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with experience gets the money, while the man with money gets the experience!”

Had lunch with a wealthy dilettante who has just lost a packet he invested in some Broadway show that went boom-through-the-floor after a few performances. I chided him for putting money in an enterprise he was not qualified to judge, and reminded him of the late William Knudsen’s crack: “When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with the experience gets the money, and the man with the money gets the experience.”

William S. Knudsen, greatest of production masters, performed the miracle of integrating all the factories of the nation in one vast machine shop to win two wars at once. But his greatest battle was against just such mad New Deal vagaries promoted for political pelf.

The first day that “Big Bill” took over the task that, through double-crossing, broke his heart and spirit, a Western senator demanded an airplane factory for his state, stressing his influence with the administration.
 
“Have you got anybody in your state with experience in making airplanes?” asked Knudsen.
 
“No,” the senator said, “but we’ll raise the money and hire men with experience.”
 
“I have noticed,” said Bill, “that when men with money meet men with experience, the men with the experience get the money and the men with the money get the experience. We need plans today, not next year. My answer is no.”

A FRIEND OF MINE recently lost a packet his invested in a Broadway show, and his complaint that the producer had diddled him reminded me of William Knudsen’s wry observation: “When a man with money meets a man with the experience, the man with experience gets the money, and the man with the money gets the experience.”

WHENEVER I hear of two disparate acquaintances going into partnership, I recall William Knudsen’s wry observation: “When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with the experience gets the money, and the man with the money gets the experience.”
