There's a few things that frustrate me reading the article. The biggest, and first, was that clients are leaving his business because they "fear fee hikes." That seems, to me, to be a thinly veiled excuse for political reasons. If it was the real reason, why wouldn't they wait until those fee changes were actually announced?
The other one is the "family business" stuff. I'm pretty firmly against working with family, for precisely the reasons Price (the business owner) is seeing. One of my pet peeves is the inherent nepotism involved with having a family member as a coworker (or worse, your spouse). That said, none of my family is in even a remotely similar field, so maybe I would feel differently if they were.
