I made an horrible mistake. I accepted a 2400$ contract and I agreed to getting paid 50$/month for 4 years.Small problem: it's not legally binding since my client is under a special governement protecting (like, he has a disability or something). It was ok at first, but he is literally calling me everyday for like 30 minutes, adding some content, etc. He is on some social security program (gets 700$/month from the governement to survive, etc.). He is building his video montage company.I am looking for a safe way to cut ties with him. I already started the website, so I kinda don't want to throw it in the trash. I have several options and I was wondering what would be the best in your opinion:Give him the unfinished version, tell him that I can't work on the project anymore for personal reasons. Possibly a bad reputation + useless work.Finish the website (like, a quickly made version) and explain to him how to host it, etc. He gets a website for free, I am able to use this for my portfolio and my conscience is clear.Finish the website quickly, make him pay like 600$ spread over 12 months and I can use the website for my portfolio. Since I made him pay, I have to keep making modifications for him from time to time, but I still get some money.To be honest, I don't really care about the time wasted and the money isn't a big deal for me. I just find that it would be unethical to make him pay 2400$ for a website (he wanted a full payment system, calendar, etc.). Not to be mean, but it's like a 6th grader attempted to make a movie maker video.I was wondering:What is the best way to say it? Do I say something like "I can't continue working on this contract for personal reasons, but I can let you keep xyz", etc.?What is the best option? Give him something unfinished for free, finish and give for free or make him pay a fraction of the price for the work I gave him? see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
