What to do?

With the ongoing economic crisis, im worried for a good family friend of ours. His main line of income is selling business insurance. we all know how insurance companies are doing right now--Not Good. He has 3 kids, all going to school, the wife is not working and is all in school. The wife texted me a few days ago if i can refer them to friends as the husband has not made a single sale for the month of January. If the same thing happens for the month of February, he might lose his job. That is something they can't afford to happen. Im not really inclined to giving out my friends number, as first i don't do that and second, i don't think any of them would be interested in getting an insurance this time of the year. But at the same time, im thinking that the type of insurance that our friend is selling is not really bad as it might actually be your safety net if your someone who has a business. hmmm...what should i do?
