A Cautionary Tale about Money
The story at left is a strange one, though worth telling for a good reason: We all should make sure that money plays its proper role in our lives.
One part of this tale rings particularly true: avoid displays of wealth. As I told my kids when they were growing up, “Unless you’re an extremely shallow person–and neither of you are–it does you absolutely no good to have other people believe you to be rich. You don’t want people trying to sell you stuff, borrowing money, or glomming on to you for impure reasons.
The only thing wrong about her- was that she used up time and medication meant for someone that couldn’t afford it – every time she went to a charity clinic.
This makes me think that she wasn’t a saint – but just a cheapskate.
