I do get more and more people assuming that I charge a fee and when they ask what they owe me, I tell them that this ones on me as the banks pay me commission out of their healthy profits.
It does make you wonder though?

Some people just want everything for nothing.
A friend of mine (a teacher) has a friend with a daughter who was having difficulty at school and asked my friend if she could help her.
My friend picked up the friend's daughter 2 days a week when she picked up her own daughter from school. She took her to her home and tutored her for an hour, then the mum would pick her up and take her home. This went on for months. No mention of payment. My friend then asked the mum if her husband (an accountant) could do her tax. She didn't say she wanted it for free. The woman said "No, we don't do that. It's best not to mix your professional work and friends"
Stop tutoring. End of friendship.
