: Re: A fair deal for purchasing a true story My cousin is an extraordinary little girl from an extraordinary family. She was featured last Christmas on NBC Nightly News. I have discussed with her

A fair deal on both sides really depends on the sides. To me it seems fair. But to them it might not. So the best thing to do would be to discuss it with them. A person like your cousin or her parents (just an example here; nothing personal) might say that since this is the child's story, they might deserve more than half the profits. Or they might say that you should agree on a price beforehand and stick to that. There are many different options here and I doubt anyone can actually tell you what you should do, besides discussing it with your cousin (and her parents if she is underage).
