MMD: Should Jordan pay Peter to go away?

1.3K Posts


Here's this week's hypothetical situation for you to cogitate on:
Should Jordan pay Peter to go away?
Jordan is a successful business woman with her own scaffolding company, and a great MoneySaver to boot. She's very close to her grandfather Peter, who knowing she uses this site a lot, constantly asks for her help with Gas & Electricity switching, phone bills and other MoneySaving. The problem is, in the time it takes Jordan to save him £100, she could've earned £500. Should she simply give him some cash instead?

I don't see this as a real dilemma coz isn't this the sort of thing she could do for him in the evening so it won't impinge on her working day
If it was me I would just do it coz it was my grandad and not think any further than that...:D
BUT
Is it really just a plea for her time..... money isn't everything... Time spent with older folk on a shared task is never wasted..... Building golden memories could be worth her loss of income...........

It's amazing what happens when you teach people, regardless of age, how to text, email etc some people get so good at it that they end up teaching you stuff back while others start communicating with friends' and family around the world.
