Ron got an offer from his credit union for a car loan.
Unfortunately, it’s about $3,800 less than what he needs to pay off his contract. That’s because he opted for all kinds of extras, and the total he requested is more than the car is worth.
He has some money from his settlement with GEICO. I offered to give him the difference. Give. Not lend.
What was his answer?
A nonchalant “Okay.” Not “thank you” or “that’s very generous” or “I really appreciate it; thanks.”
“Okay” in a world-weary voice.
I took back the offer. Pearls before frigging swine.
