Participant“they made a bad financial decision”
My only criticism is they may be making a bad financial decision now by letting go of a potentially good, relatively risk free opportunity. Even a ten minute face time on prime time national TV (a million $ value?)can be converted into many times their house’s value ($500K?), if played properly. I don’t know what their problem is. After all, it is not like some “adult show” or anything.

Participantbsrsharma you may be right but I cannot advise them on this. It is way out of my profession so I simply presented the offer to them. I think it would be irresponsible to promote things which I do not know about.
What if they went on and then the next day everyone at work looks at them and asks them what they are gonna do about losing their home? Or the kids get ridiculed at school? Again I am not saying stuff like this will happen but I absolutely would not feel comfortable promoting or not promoting this sort of stuff to them.
I don’t know the potential benefits nor the potential downside and anything I say would be speculative.
It would be irresponsible.

ParticipantAlthough they are in a tough position of their own doing (largely) I can’t help but feel some sympathy. I can only imagine how tough this can be on a family unit…
Take heed from this everyone and learn that conservative financial responsibility is ALWAYS a better plan when it comes to you and your family.

Participant“What if they went on and then the next day everyone ..”
I would at least like to think people will show some sympathy and try to help whatever way they can. Misfortunes can happen to anyone, I don’t think anyone with a fibre of humanity will ridicule them, at least in their face. But I agree it is not your domain to advice them on that.
