Seems like a no brainer to me. He's a better bet than someone make 60K a year with the potential to get fired.

I'd also say the lending institution's practice is discriminatory.
The potential buyer said, “Having a job does not give you any more security than having the assets that I have.”

I think he'd agree with you.
