Repaying Debt

~ Gottfried

Blessed are the young, for they shall inherit National debt. It scares me that I’m better at paying off debt than my country is. I keep telling them, if they add 2% stupidity tax, the National debt will be paid off in a matter of weeks. That being said, I look forward to paying all my debt and getting back to just being broke.

He who is quick to borrow is slow to pay. A small debt produces a debtor; a large one, an enemy. I think I have enough enemies as it is. You know it is not in my interest to pay back the principal, or my principal to pay the interest. To me, Money isn’t the most important thing in life, but it is reasonably close to oxygen.

When you owe money and don’t pay it back, do you know what that’s called? Stealing! Money doesn’t change you. It reveals who you are when you no longer have to be nice. I hate when people can’t let go of the past. Debt collectors are the worst. Why are you Dming my family? My old school mates? Why?

Debt is not a tool. It is a method to make banks wealthy, not you. The borrower truly is a slave to the lender. What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience? I’ll tell you what; a second wife. Better to go to bed hungry than to wake up in debt.

Debt means you had more fun than you were supposed to. Now you’re at the back of the bar washing dishes because your card declined. Creditors have better memories than debtors. Having difficulty remembering things? Lend ten people money. Your mind will regain sharpness.

I’ll pay you back, is a code phrase for ‘you will never see your money again.’ The only man who sticks closer to you in adversity than a friend is a creditor. You’re worth more to him alive. If stock market experts were so expert, they would be buying stocks, not selling advice.

Does swimming in debt count as cardio?

  1. A delightful treat to read this morning and it’s all very true. Well articulated.

    “Debt can indeed be a burden, but it’s important to remember that financial responsibility is key to maintaining a stable and stress-free life. Rather than using debt as a means to have more fun than you should, consider budgeting and saving to achieve your goals without accumulating unnecessary financial obligations.

        Who Are Innocent Who Do Not Support Acts of True Evil Yet Who Never the Less

        Price With

        Their Lives
        And the Lives

        It’s True Evil Exists Yet it is Spread

        All Around ThiS Way True LoVE iN Peace

        Exists Too And It is Spread All Around ThiS WAY

        As An ‘Old Cherokee Legend’ Tells it ThiS Way

        “Within all of us there is a battle of two wolves.
        One is evil. He is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow,
        regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment,

        inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”

        “The other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love,
        hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,
        empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.”

        The Wolf That Wins The Battle of God and Evil Will

        Be the Wolf We Feed The Most And Sadly Increasingly

        In the World The Evil Wolf is Increasingly Enjoying A Buffet

        Of What

        That Part

        Of Our Soul

        Requires to
        Grow in Darkness
        Even to BLackest Abyss of Soul

        Hehe Yet i Digress Although We Don’t

        Want to Fall in Debt With the Evil Wolf Within

        You Asked About my Credit Card Debt My Wife’s

        ‘Allowance’ is Ample Since She Inherited All that Nasty

        Green Stuff When i Retired That i Was Basically a slave to

        for 33 Years And It’s True The Credit Card Company Pays Us

        in Rewards to Use the Credit Card as My Wife is Always Responsible

        Enough to Pay it off Each Month Without Accruing What is Approaching

        20 Percent Interest Rates on the Average Credit Card Debt of Americans

        of 6,000 Dollars Dear Lord Mr Gottfried Words Were Never an Area of

        Expertise for me i Doubt These Would Exist on Your Page Now if

        Not Losing Effective Use of Eyes and Ears For 66 Months

        With Yes the Suicide Disease Type Two Trigeminal

        Neuralgia From Wake to Sleep for 66 Months

        Leaving me With A Mountain of Pain

        For Each Word on Screen

        Turned All the Way

        Down For Brightness

        as NO Drug Would Touch That Pain
        God Yes Wake to Sleep Shut-in for 66 Months

        Writing my Only Way to At least Get my Mind off the
        Reality of Dentist-Drill-Like Pain in my Right Eye and
        Ear as Sounds Were Off Limits As Well as Light of Day

        i Had Financial Independence

        Yet No Soul Not Even A Memory

        of the Feeling of A SMiLe As You’ve
        Heard the Story Before What Good is it to

        Even Own the World Without A Soul None

        How Dark Are Lives Separated From LoVE iN Peace

        How Horrible For Those Who Live That Way Spreading Death And
        Destruction still

        i Know Where

        They Live

        Vengeance

        Is Already Who They Are

        THere is No True Victory

        in Vengeance Only Gratification of Lost Souls…

        Could i Become A Villain Given Dark Enough

        Circumstances None of Us Will Truly Know

        Until IF That Day Actually Comes to Be Yet

        to Be Lost From Soul The Other Place For Real

        A Place WHere LoVE iN Peace is Lost From Heaven Real…

        SMiLes Mr Gottfried i May Seem Liberal in Many Ways Yet

          1. “Cat 6 hurricane is dangerous”

            Hehe Mr Gottfried i Once Sat in A Church And Listened
            To A Catholic Deacon taking the place of the Head Priest

            Describe Hurricanes as Evil As Human Beings Have Been

            Complaining About the Challenges of Nature Since The

            Beginning of Human Fears of the Unknown Hehe Yet

            In This Case of

            Course With A
            Bit More Focus

            in Understanding

            How Nature Works

            It’s Just Nature Letting off a bit
            of Steam and Re-Distributing Heat
            of Oceans that Actually Helps Other
            Life Survive and Thrive Non-Locally as Such

            The Deacon also Compared that so-Called
            Evil to Other Natural Parts of Human Nature

            As You Know HAha my Messages May Be
            Cat-6 Fueled So After The Head Priest

            How Much More Than
            A Sword or Even Turning
            Money Tables Over Words Will Play

            Amusingly If We Truly Do Get Cat-6
            Stronger Categories of Hurricanes in the Future

            Surely They Will Be Salt and Peppered A Bit From Human

            Influence Yet the Karma of Nature’s Influence is the True Real

            Big Boss And Yes We aRe Just Small Waves of Nature Holding

            Hands Enough to Make a Difference in the Balance of Nature Now

            in A Negative Way of Storms That Create Larger Waves and Winds

            Balance

            Back

            Take More Than We Give Hoard More Than We Share

            Harm Callously Rather Than Give Share Care And Heal

            With Empathy And Compassion For All Parts of the Whole

            That is God For Real We Suffer the Consequences of Our

  4. Maybe my absolute refusal to be at the mercy of another person especially because of money is why I have completely paid off two clients from failed projects which to be honest weren’t my fault and totally out of my control.

    But when I compare this with how easy it is for people to take money and just roll off into the sunset, I begin to question if there’s a part of their brains that’s either not working or working too hard.

    Being in debt isn’t fancy and worse is a classroom for others to plan and execute what sometimes could be plain evil which on its own deserves pound of punishment. See? The cycle never ends and maybe, just maybe for someone who just wanted money to impress where the impression didn’t even impress.

    Have a great week ahead and stay debt free.

    1. Yeah I do this too with contracted work. If you’re not happy with the quality of my work, I will issue you a full refund for my sanity.

      Haha, you just have a functioning conscience that is all. Those people were never in it for the pride of the work.

      “where the impression didn’t even impress” has me weak 😂😂😂

      Yup, that’s the motto this week!
