I've never seen a plan that didn't have to be replanned. In all likelihood, your initial list of tasks is going to double or triple once you get into the zone. So I think this micro-level of attention is a huge red flag. If the money is important, and your relative is fundamentally a good person, why not suggest a number of high-level milestones rather than a multitude of tasks?
