    If it has crypto anywhere on it, or so much smells slightly of crypto, you make sure you’re paid in real money up front.

      Don’t spend your own money on a friend or family member’s pet project unless you’re willing to consider that money a gift if you need to.

      The ‘cousin’ part is the part that’s tripping him up here.

If payment is not rendered according to our contract, I’ll be seeing you in court.”
