Just how is it that Dirk’s relation to the Vaughan’s increased his chances of getting these ladies to sign on the dotted line?
I dare say that your statement shows a hint of jealousy, though I am sure that will be denied emphatically.
To address your search for the “difference” as mentioned in your last paragraph, I will start by stating that I AM a family member to someone charged WAY to much for a vehicle. However, I see the price paid as the fault of the buyer. Though I regret he had to pay that much, I see it as his own doing for not being financially responsible. Had he been, he would have had ALOT more options open to him. I have no ill wishes for the person who sold him this car, in fact - the seller took a HUGE risk on this sale and should get paid for it. As we speak, this loan is in default and my relative has no intent to continue paying. It is my sincere hope that (due to the seller’s high price and rate) that the seller made something on this deal.
If the economy was based on the ability to pay, we would be in serious trouble. The line between business and charity would be unclear. Should this car seller now say to my relative, “Well, it’s ok, I overcharged you anyway.” I do not think so.
Businesses AND charities are both formed to fill a need. One makes money, the other gives it away. Which are you operating?
