My niece recently received a ticket for driving in excess of the posted speed limit. We will call this a speeding ticket but it does sound more official to say she was driving in excess of the posted speed limit. How much the ticket will cost is yet to be determined but it may be reduced if she goes to traffic school. I would recommend going.
There are so many things vying for our money these days that if there is a way to reduce some of it, ethically and morally, then, by all means, work for the reduction. I wish there was a way to get the cable company to let me work off some of their charges. Don't you? Debts and obligations take up so much money. lol
Today's word is an American proverb, which says, "Before borrowing money from a friend, decide which you need most."
Many friendships have been ruined and forever lost over loans. It is difficult to say no to our friends when they need help. It is equally difficult not to be upset when they can't seem to pay you back. Sometimes, the reasons are legitimate; sometimes, they are just taking advantage of your generosity. You have to decide which is more important.
Before you jump the gun and borrow money, decide if you can really live without what you are looking at. Sometimes, our temporary immediate gratification can cloud our better judgement. Slow down. Consider all the options. Take it all in. Give yourself some time. And, don't exceed the posted bank account. You'll be glad you did.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
