Help, I have a family member who wants me to teach them making online money etc....
he is younger than me and looking to me for guidance i guess because he knows i work at home... he says he wants to be self employed as well and doesn't want to work for anyone. He has no idea I sell porn. He has no idea what i do at all, he just says that he wants to learn from me because he doesn't want to work for someone else.
No one in my family knows i market porn and I am going to keep it that way because I don't want any of them knowing my business or life. I am not too close with my family but when I do see them I usually make something up, I don't know if it was convincing enough but I'm just vague and say "internet marketing" or something, I have a feeling they are suspicious of me and wonder what I REALLY do... but that's not the point.
My objective: I don't want to teach this person what I do but how should I word it nicely without hurting their feelings? usually if it were anyone else I would say something obnoxious like "why would i teach you anything and have you compete against me" sort of thing, but I actually want to be nice and I can't say that to this person.
Also, this person just received a degree and I feel like they should use it... It would be a waste not too and it would be better for them to get real world experience in the field they chose. I don't have a degree. I am just lucky that I started way back earlier when it was a bit easier.
Also, I could use the excuse that it's too detailed oriented and that I wouldn't be able to teach someone unless they where with me all the time.... What if the person will then say "ooh I can come over and stay with you while you show me" etc
I need diplomatic tactics for dealing with this without having it backfire in my face.
