Oh, I see. I'm not really familiar with that usage of "fair", to be honest. I agree that it's not illegal, not a transaction that involved poorly executed service in exchange for cash doesn't sound very ethical, unless the clients are aware that it's going to be poorly executed... which I doubt.

I think it's just a case of sorting one's priorities out. It IS not nice to offer ineffectual fanfic editing for purchase. It is also not nice to be unable to pay your medical bills. Neither is nice, but one is less nice than the other, and I do think the OP should get some perspective here, especially as their friend is perfectly unaware they're doing anything wrong. They aren't even trying to deceive people on purpose.

I don't disagree with you in this particular situation, though it'd be nicer if the OP's friend offered a service they could perform well. But this reasoning:

"...but one is less nice than the other..."

Nah. You can't really use that as a justification because any number of rotten things are better than not having the money to pay your medical bills, including robbing senior citizens or check fraud. If I have to have saltines and mayonnaise for dinner because I have no money for food, that's not nice... but it doesn't justify sneaking into someone else's house and taking their flatscreen TV so I can pawn it for grocery money.

"They aren't even trying to deceive people on purpose."

I agree. It's too bad that having good intentions doesn't really make the end result (a poorly edited fic someone paid for) any less bad, though.

It doesn't make the end result bad, but it also doesn't make it an unfair business transaction.
