[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 529563, member: 84"] Myself? I wouldn't trust someone outside of the family who doesn't have his best interest at heart to control his funds. If someone else needs to do it, then it needs to be someone who will not be tempted to abuse the power that comes with it. I myself, don't think I'd trust his team/coach whatever. Nor would I trust the girlfriend. Girlfriends come and go. Maybe a future wife (because then she has a vested interest) but not a girlfriend. Money corrupts. Sadly, it doesn't take a lot of money for it to have that effect either. If he needs someone else to handle his funds and you no longer want the job and there is no one else to step up to the plate, perhaps there is a way to set up a Trust Fund type of arrangement where a lawyer handles/safeguards his funds and doles out a set amount each month??
