[QUOTE="HeyEng, post: 3361542, member: 44022"] Although not *quite* the same, I have figured out that if I charge someone for legal advice and/or service, they take it seriously. If I provide my services for free (whether pro bono, friends, etc.) they don't heed said advice or don't find value in it. I always think that's interesting. My Dad had a commercial HVAC company and many years ago, he would occasionally help neighbors (who he knew for years) but they seemed to take advantage of him. He retired in 1988, and died at 91 years old a couple of years ago. As recently as a year before he died, some of those same neighbors would STILL call asking for help...yes, from a 90 year old man.
