Yesterday, I read an article in the newspaper about debtors
being harassed by legal money lenders. Now the article was clearly on the side
of the debtors with stories of the money lenders harassing the debtors at their
home, workplace and in public. Sorry but I have a hard time having sympathy for
the debtors.
Call me old-fashioned but I believe that if you owned money,
then it is your obligation to pay it back. In the article yesterday, there was
one debtor who complained about the money-lenders who harassed him at his
workplace. However if you read the article, he also disclosed that he owned
money to 15 money-lenders to a total of $40,000!
Sorry but what did he expect? Come on, if you are one of the
15 money-lenders and knows this guy own money to 14 other money-lenders, what
would you do? Wait patiently and hope you are not the last guy to be paid or go
chase after the guy for your money? To me, there’s no question what I would do.
Personally, I have little to no sympathy to people who
borrowed money and then try to hid behind the law to avoid paying back the
money they took. If someone borrowed money from 15 money-lenders, then he
should expect some of them to go to his workplace. Legal or not, it should be
common sense.
