I have a PFY. He has not yet learned the correct answer to "Will you help me with my home computer out of the goodness of your heart?" is "There IS no goodness in my heart!"

He'll learn, though.

Don't forget to add "But I will be happy to have a look at it for a moderate fee."

"Cash. A lot of it. In advance. No refunds."

I've made lots of beer this way... but only from people I liked. Others I refer to the shop down the street.

Or "No, but I do a little contracting on the side; normally it's $125/hour but for youuuuuuuu, only $75/hour, 2 hour minimum. How's that sound?"
