Ownership != Control. Most outright owners are in control, but it doesn't necessarily follow. I mean, if you're not in control, you still have to rely on those that are not to mess it up, and there may come a time when you have to do the dirty work to make sure they don't.

Even when you are in control, you really are counting on others to get things done. Putting your name on the paycheck only gets you so far :-)
