Good point. I opted to be a good developer and said "because of
health, family matters and crashing in part of the development
environment I was trying to learn, I can not finish this project and
opt to return your money." I do not want any grief with any of my
clients and try to hold up my obligations. I've got enough stress
now and didn't want to feel guilty over mishandling a project that I
solely held responsibility for completing.
