“Sorry, my FRiend, but that just isn’t true -— I’m speaking from experience.”
Wow, I stirred up quite a hornets nest with my commentary. ;-) I suppose I should have added the rare qualifier that it may not be possible for EVERY person, however I still stand firmly in my position that the vast majority of those who think they are financially fragile could come up with $2K in 30 days by working more and selling “stuff.”
Since you are on my ping list, I know that you are part of the very small minority that qualifies as the exception. However, we also know that it is not a permanent condition...
;-)
Of course it’s not a permanent condition, but believe me it’s been danged hard keeping that attitude for over 3 years.
The reason you stirred up such controversy was your broadbrush stereotyping. I honestly do not think that I am such a rare exception or minority.
I’m not looking to pick a fight with you, but I think we’ve been friends long enough for your to know how much I despise broad brush stereotyping :)
BTW -— the Escort is back up and running and the windshield was replaced in the Ranger about an hour ago — but the car fund is now back to zero and I have to start all over again.
P.S. -— please add me to your ping list, I’m not on it.
