Sort of reminds me about a talk I had with my brother a week or two back. He had called me up and was asking about needing additional ways to make money, something to invest in that would return X amount per year. Now he owns a construction and roofing company and his monthly take home is around twenty thousand. Doing my best to avoid the question at hand because I did not feel like telling him I would not let him invest in anything I am doing (family and all), I asked him about his take home and after I got the answer I asked him why he needed to increase it. He then explained that when you make that much your bills go up as well. I chuckled some and made sure he was talking about his take home pay and he assured me he was. I tried to explain it to him but it never seemed to sink in. At least I avoided the whole issue of telling him why I would not let him invest.
