Your Sister's Signature

Would you sign?

Your Sister's Signature

Your sister needs you to guarantee a loan. If her plan works, she keeps her home. If it fails, you take on a debt that would set you back for years. She says nobody else will help.

Would you sign?

Then ask

  • How much debt would you risk for her?
  • Which relative would you trust with the same signature?
  • Why have you not told your sister your limit?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
