With regards to your comments on staking, the majority of time, if someone is still a +ev investment I think the actual situation is often that you have "leaks" with regards to running a business/staking, and that's whats causing the unhappiness.

When I hear staking problems, assuming the horse is honest/+Ev, the problem is usually because of lack of clear terms and contract from the outset, or lack of ability for the staker to remain professional. The advice I would give first, is to consider if the problem is with you rather than a horse in a tough spot (financially, or with variance) being a bit difficult. Above all else, this should not be personal, stay calm.

It's very strange that many very good poker pros can detach from huge swings/behave very rationally at the tables, but when it comes to making EV decisions in this regard, all this goes out the window, and they approach it half-assed and emotionally.

Lastly, don't stake close friends, and unless your friend has a stable of 20+ horses/very professionally run operation, getting staked by a friend is likely a huge mistake as well. This avoids a lot of this.
