It’s Not Fun

Yes, paying debt is not fun but it’s an obligation to fulfill. When fund is low and we have plenty of needs to meet, there is always a place we can turn to. And if we have the means to repay, there are institutions that would lend us their resources to make our lives… better? Well, things may go the other way around. And if we are not mindful, it will lead us to being regretful. One may react, why get a debt when you feel like paying is not fun? Or maybe I will be told, do not get a loan if you do not like paying. Or maybe the sweetest comment I can get is, nobody ordered you to get a loan why complain? LOL! I’m not here to complain, I would just like to share some thing that one experienced or about to experience. PEACE!

Sometimes we need to borrow money to get things going, otherwise it would be very difficult. We need to borrow only that amount which we can return, or else we will land in much bigger problem lol.

@ZedSmart one of my friends lends money on interest, I came to know a few things about borrowing and lending from her. It is very difficult to collect money from few people, they take money but tell all kinds of stories when they need to give money and then postpone everytime she asks.

You are right on that. We should only get what we we're able to pay if not, then the result would be a problem.

With my husband we always stayed away from debts. We never bought something if we had not the money to pay in full.

@ZedSmart That is true. Something that I am learning not to borrow money I cannot repay.

They will understand. It's still good because it's not from the loan sharks that continues to collect interest and penalty.

To avoid trouble, avoid getting into trouble. That means live within your means.

That is very true. Necessity should be prioritize first before the luxury I think.

There are times, when we don't always have a choice. Sometimes, we just have to borrow money. No, it's not fun. It's not something that anyone likes. But sometimes, it can be helpful.

@ZedSmart Exactly. Sometimes, it's nice to have that peace of mind that, if anything comes up, then it's there.

That is something how life works. It's OK as long as it's not lead us to trouble I guess.
