If you want to be their “Uncle Jim” / LSP, you can on board them by installing Blue Wallet for them and make sure to set the LNDHub setting in their Blue Wallet pointed to the LNDHub installed in your node. (Make sure to not leave it at default, because Blue is shutting down their LNDHub on April 30 and funds on Blue’s node will get rugged). But by doing so, you are taking on the responsibility of managing their funds on the back end and taking care of things for them. In other words, they become reliant on you.
Again, trade-offs. Personally, I really like pushing for more personal responsibility. Teach someone how to fish, don’t just give them fish. It might take more time and effort to teach them and for them to learn, but if you somehow became unavailable, they don’t get rugged.
