Hiring RELATIVES: Good idea or a Financial FISTING?

Sadly, my experience was the latter. I hired my cousin last year. She managed to fuck up a 80K contract. My fiscal anus took a bit to heal.

What's your experience re hiring relatives?

Financial Fisting...

Don't hire relatives, hire the best. Relatives will not take you or your project as seriously because your relationship is less professional.
