I spoke about it for awhile with my mentor a few years back. She told me that it was a hell of a lot of responsibility and to really think twice before doing it.
My understanding of it is your client giving you his paycheck and you take care of his needs. Anything else, well I guess that it would be yours.
I would think ... that this is a VERY private situation and could go badly quickly if he was abused in any way.
The other suggestions, shopping spree or whatever, that is a little different. Gryphon's definition of it below is what I think of it to be.
Good luck with it. Great topic!
