Oh, yeah. Covid. And job loss, or cut back hours. Oh yeah, foreclosures.
Evictions.
Think quickly on your feet, depend on love and generosity from family and friends.
Ask for help. Ask for advice. You cannot solve any problem you cannot fully grasp.

2 dozen yard eggs for a notice of appeal for a murder conviction with life sentence.
Not a stranger to taking $224.13 in coins and ones brought in by a preacher, donations from the congregation, to represent a congregant in a felony assault on a peace officer.
I got the peace officer to recommend to the state to just drop that case. One of possibly 5 cops I have known that was honest.

Pretty good advice here:
Be prepared. Be bold. Be imaginative.
Toss in empathy for your fellow man and you have a pretty good system for getting through this life
I like "be well and prosper". I think it isn't about length but quality.

When I have a problem, I start calling people. Sooner or later, someone will come up with some good advice.
I know about 9 or 10 years ago, I went to China, got a dose of Parvo b-19. 3 doctors misdiagnosed it as rheumatoid arthritis. I told a friend about my physical ailments, and she had a friend who had traveled to Europe, returned with the exact same thing. I was put into contact with him, had the lab tests ordered, got the correct diagnosis, and was immediately taken off steroids, likely the deadliest medicine out there for people with Parvo b-19.

Someone famous (no, he was never on The Apprentice) said that, paraphrased. OK. Bueler. Give me some current examples from current events of how our country and its people don't seem to understand this simple idea.

that happens in my neighborhood...
...and lawyer fees can be and are bartered here as well. The trade day mentality is still alive in hillbilly land.
May become more common? May be it should become more common everywhere.

I, too, have bartered.
