Merlin was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and he could not help but ask, “A hundred million US dollars could have such an impact?!”
Merlin’s son-in-law nodded heavily without hesitation, “That’s right! Dad, a hundred million US dollars has that much power in the hands of rich people!”
With that said, he continued, “Of course, the most important point here is that the Acker family can guarantee us an annual net interest rate of eight percent. Uncle Christian said that if the market environment goes down and cannot reach the net interest rate of eight percent or if there was a loss, the Acker family will also make up for our trust’s eight percent net profit. For example, under normal circumstances, a hundred million US dollars will become a hundred and eight million US dollars in the first year, but if the market environment is no good this year and the hundred million US dollars is only ninety million US dollars in the end, the Acker family will take out eighteen million US dollars to ensure that there are a hundred and eight million US dollars remaining in our trust!”
“With the Acker family as our endorser, we won’t have to worry about making losses at all. We simply need to wait for the trust income to be unlocked after eighteen years!”
Merlin’s wife and daughter were already dumbfounded, but Merlin subconsciously said, “Shane, isn’t this too much money? How can we, as a family, accept so many benefits from others? This is really unfair and inappropriate...”
Merlin meant every word he said.
After listening to his son-in-law’s calculation, he realized that the Acker family was not simply giving them a sum of money. Instead, they were giving his family an open-ended and eternal promise.
As long as the Acker family still exists, the Acker family would guarantee the interests of the trust.
This was equivalent to the Acker family giving the Lammy family a long-term meal ticket, and the denomination of this meal ticket was also very high.
Therefore, although Merlin expected his son-in-law to agree to Christian’s request, he could not help but feel that this affection was too much after hearing this, and he really could not accept it.
When his son-in-law saw that Merlin was hesitant, he said nervously, “Dad! You shouldn’t think twice about this! This is an excellent opportunity for our family to go up to another level in society! We will definitely regret it for the rest of our lives if we miss out on this!”
