1. I think I see it as the guy learning statistics being needy and you fulfilling a need for him. And for yourself too. He is the one who will suffer later because he doesn't know stats and maybe that will be a lesson to him. Don't feel guilty.
2. You should really check out the stock market, call a broker and try to find some tax shelters for your money. I don't know what there is for Americans in this day and time (it's been quite a few years since I've been out of that business but back in my time I was aware of many existing shelters).
3. In the matter of the conservative nutjob I would hope that common sense and the sanity of Americans at large will squelch him before he can come to any sort of real power. Unfortunately some Canadians (not me!) elected a conservative nutjob as prime minister just recently, albeit with a minority. Having faith in the Canadian parliamentary system, I rest assured, however, that the saner heads in the opposition parties will keep him in check so that he cannot do any real damage or undo some of the progressive things that the previous party accomplished (such as legalized gay marriage, legalized abortion), and set us all back 50 years.
