Boortz also mentioned the people who say they need help and they have a 50” TV and X-Boxes...
Over the years Ive visited people who claim they needed food etc and I learnt years ago to look around their house...
Big TV cigarettes, extravagant extras they are paying off...
Ive told them to let the freezer and big TV go back so they didnt have to pay the monthly amount on those and stop buying cigarettes then they could afford to buy food for their children and pay their electric bill...
Oh Nana youre SOOOO MEEEEEEEEEEEAN...
Yeah
and while I was at one house the man of the house came home with bags of KFC ...
\
all the extras included..
I pointed out to he and his wife that they had spent about a weeks worth of food money on that one meal ...
another house the Ice Cream man came down the street...
The woman managede to find some $20 bills ande gave one of the children one to buy ice cream for all of them...
Its amazing what can go on right in front of you...
Did i say the man with the childken weas driving a fairly new expensive cart ???
Did I say I asked if it was paid for ???
of course I asked...
Im nosy...as well as MEAN..
No it wasnt ...
that was another worry...
the monthly payment was much higher than a cheaper car would have been...
Dont ever be afraid or too “nice” to ask when someone comes with the “need”
Churches should be part of a network to stop the mooches from going from one of them to another...
in a network they call other churches to describe the people and what they are driving...
One trick is to send Mom in at one chuirch and then an hour later or less Dad goes into the church down the street for the same so called need ...
always make sure you get to see the whole family before you help them..
those 3 children “at home” may be old enough to work or they may not even be living with the parents...
yes its not unChristian to tell someone to sell or just take that big TV back to the store...
Its wisdom and bei9ng a good steward over your money...
Tell them even Booker T Washington said that rich people should just give because they are asked...
Oh bad MEAN Booker T...
Have you ever noticed how the “poor” feel entitled. Last month I was filling my car at the QT when some guy pulled up behind my and asked if I could spare him ten bucks for gas. I told him I could but I wouldn’t. The look on his face was kind of astonished. He moved on to the next person, and I didn’t pay any attention to the outcome of that transaction.
My wife has two friends whom I utterly detest. They both constantly poor mouth, but they likewise stint themselves nothing. Every possible cable TV option. Not a new Chevrolet, but a new Lexus (and a Mercedes for the other one) every time the lease runs out. Eat out several times a week. One has two dogs. Both retired just as soon as they hit the minimum requirements. As far as I know neither is actually on means tested assistance, but only because they’re afraid of getting caught for fraud if they tried it. (actually I only know that about one of them. Haven’t heard anything about the other for a couple of years) Both spend every penny they have as soon as they get their hands on it. The one that I still know about husband’s mother died and they came into an inheritance of some sort about three years ago. Went on elaborate vacations for about a year. After that I think the money ran out because she went back to complaining about how broke she was. Frankly if I saw either of them starving in the street I wouldn’t give them the time of day.
