    You can't just go around saving kids from burning buildings without signing a contract dictating the terms, conditions, and payment.

    This is just how business is done. Without it, every Tom, Dick, and Harry would run wild, saving kids from burning buildings and demanding payment from everyone.

    For all we know, he was probably the one who put those kids in that building and set the fire just to make a scene hoping for a quick pay day. Unbelievable.

    We can do better.

    The real money was in offering the family a monthly subscription based service for saving the children. He clearly wasn't thinking about the ad revenue that would have generated.
