<prompt> Human: Sorry for the vague title. Little bit of background, my mother is 62 and has been a widow for 8 years now, and recently decided to try again. She found an exceedingly nice 63 yo man on ChristianMingle, who has been sending her flowers and little gifts callsemails her daily and talks to her nonstop. My dad put both her and myself through hell when I was growing up, and we made it through by sticking together. She is my best friend. I want nothing but the absolute best for her, and we both really, really like this guy. And unfortunately, no matter how often he refers to her as his wife, she has no legal claim as of yet. Heres where the finance issue comes in to play.I dont know how many details are too many in his situation. I do know they take security pretty seriously, which is why this is a throwaway account. He is an independent contractor currently stationed on an oil rig for the country of Poland. While he was out of the country briefly something went wrong. After he got back and went to investigate, there was an accident. The part that malfunctioned that needs replacing is 175.5k and he doesnt currently have the money he needs to get it. We know of a possible 80k that can be used towards it, but thats still 95k difference. He could potentially go to jail for breach of contract if he cant come up with the money to replace this part. Im 26 with very little knowledge of these sorts of things, and my poor mom is just a mess over this. She doesnt have money to give him to help, and he hasnt asked either. I just want her to be able to be happy with this guy. Were at a loss and I figured as a last ditch effort I could turn to the wonderful people of Reddit. Im not even sure if Im posting this in the right place, if you know of otherbetter subreddits for this sort of thing, please let me know.  <response>: This is an Australian link but the info holds good.
