Another relaxed weekend day

Today has started in a relaxed mode...again...nothing to do but cooking :) break fast n lunch.....thinking of going to some kinda beach in the evening.....

was thinking abt sumthing very interesting...one of my friends....is in a team...out of home town...infact out of home country....not too lucrative but very good for profile, resume, etc....has some family problems...gotta spend a huge amount to bring the family or has to leave the team and move back.....n the guy has promised for 2 more months in the team....he comes to the team lead n manager to help him thru the situation......the way he is...he can be flexed...he hasnt decided anything yet......so as a leader/manager u r in a position to influence the guy into a decision.....

so...if u r the leader of the team...wat do u do? wat shud u advice this guy? what is gud for him? if he stays n brings the family with him....he loses a decent amount of money but may be...jus may be...he will have a profile which will help him in the longer term...if he leaves...he breaks a commitment....but he doesnt lose too much...he has been in the industry for more than 7-8 yrs....so he can get back a good enough role in a very short while....so as a leader/manager....WHAT to do??!! team or person? money or profile?
