My man…cmon read through this and then as a business owner reflect on how you’ve been taken advantage of, its one thing to offer some advise, lots of us do, its another thing to perform actual work. I always tell my family, friends, acquaintances I am happy to lend an ear and some knowledge but as soon as they ask me to do something actionable (aka an audit) then they best bring out the checkbook. It looks like your only reflecting upon half of the problem here. Additionally, if someone was to come to me as often as Ralph seems to have, I would write up a small consulting contract…but to each their own.
