It's an awful lot of hassle for $20 a month. Unless you feel you can really trust the guy, I'd say no because:

1. Probably not allowed by your ISP
2. He may be downloading dodgy stuff
3. You'd need to make sure he couldn't access all the other computers in your house
3. Making sure you get your money every month
4. Making sure he doesn't hog all your bandwidth.

1. Definitely a concern
2. Again, a concern. If there's anyway to monitor this stuff I'd appreciate if someone could point in the right direction of doing this, as I have no idea about this stuff.
3. Same as #2
4. That's not much of a problem. I can just say if I don't have the money on a cetain date, I'll change the password or deny access to his computer (if that's possible).
5. He said he wouldn't LAG it up, but if I noticed some LAG I'd have a little chat with him.

I guess I'm mostly concerned about him gaining access to our computers, and what to know how to monitor his activity.
