Good Lesson

Andrew came home from work the other day and said "I'm sick of this!!!" When I pressed him further, he said "People who can't even afford the necessities of life are in here wanting to buy pools--luxuries--and then they have to finance them to buy them. And half the time the financing is turned down because their credit is bad." I am so glad that Andrew is learning this valuable lesson. Money has always tended to burn a hole in his pocket, so maybe this experience will help him see as he gets older the importance of not using credit as a way of obtaining things. If he can learn that lesson it will make it worth it that he didn't get to be a camp counselor but had to come home and work instead to make up the value of that Life scholarship.
