Talk about an act coming from a Good Samaritan that came through when he was needed most at a tire repair shop in Hemet California last week. Alex who is a mom was sad that she could not afford to pay the bill to replace four bald tires on her vehicle since the price is $1,400 dollars. A 70 year old man named Phil who overheard the conversation between Alex and the employees at the repair shop decided to tell Alex he would be able to pay the bill with his own money to her bail her out of a terrible jam of not having a vehicle to drive. Phil simply told Alex as a way to repay him for his favor was to "Pay it forward." to have the field even once again.

That is so true since I wish I had that kind of money myself to buy my basic needs.

She sure was lucky to run into him. That is a crazy price for tires. I know back in Latvia the economy is very bad so when people need things like tires they go to places where they can get used tires that still have life in them.

The state of California is one of the most expensive state in terms of high taxes and greedy politicians.
