” we can’t even know who is borrowing what “

Borrowing??

“Borrowing” implies that the money will be paid back — is there anybody out there so naive as to think this is gonna happen??

I’d rather ‘loan’ money to my alcoholic, out-of-work brother-in-law.....

I know that. I was repeating what my neighborhood Peggy Moocher calls it except sometimes she asks do “ I have any change” to give her with emphasis on the word “change” except her change requests are not “chump change”. I agree one thing to work something or pay off something but they don’t call it that in today’s world. In six months, probably will be called a “bailout” on the street and not a loan or a borrow or change.

How about a budding entrepreneur like me ?

Oh, wait... I’m too responsible to be trusted with loan/investment. Dang. I guess I’ll have to do this the old fashioned way.
