Levels Of Wealth...

Money is not evil on it's own but it makes people very strange. A guy I knew years ago asked me to borrow $60.00 until he got paid. He lost the money in the video poker machines. I didn't care for him that much but it kid was a good little guy and I knew the kid would suffer. I loaned him the money. Weeks pasted and my buddy was avoiding me as I knew he would. I ran into him and asked about the money. He went into a rant about how he lost his job because he was caught stealing. He went on to say if I ever asked again about the money he would beat the hell out of me. Ok no big deal and from then on if someone wants to borrow money I give to them. Two bucks and never a cent more. They would say, Kev I always paid you back and why the hard a$$ thing? Response was Ricky wanted to kill me when I asked about the money he owed me and he made life bad for you. The next few weeks Ricky got his a$$ kicked a few times for being a dead beat. He did the same to a few others. No loans because of him. To this day I will give two bucks and never loan one nickel.
