    Basically, 2 or more people working on the same project. The all chip in one way or another. The profits are split amongst those people.

    If you are planning to start a joint venture, make sure its with someone you trust or is a trusted DP member. Otherwise, you'll end up losing money.

    I had an offer for a joint venture to learn how to create a website and use content and adsense to create traffic and such but I never heard back and I was interested in learning so I don't really know where to go from here.

    Are you sure it was a joint venture? sounds like they were trying to sell you something.

    People who you don't know and use the term 'joint venture' are salesmen and/or scammers.

    I agree with all of this.

    I thought it was a bunch of people smoked up and on an adventure. Example: a bunch of rafters going down a river sharing some bud.

    Well he said I could teach you and we could do a joint venture so that you can learn and we will split the profits but then I never heard anything else about it. So not sure. I am kind of learning on my own now. For the moment that is.
