The Debt You Owe

“Neither a borrower nor a lender be; for loan doth oft lose both itself and friend.”
-William Shakespeare
 
Question: What is the similarity of a  borrower and a lender? Well, the quote of William Shakespeare above tells us all. 
 
Debts can make us slaves as this quote says, "When you get in debt you become a slave."-Andrew Jackson 

Lately, this group was having an arguments regarding this "UTANG" thing. Some became pros while others became cons and the others are neutrals as usual. Why? It just because the related body is not just an ordinary member of this group but an idol-type person. And I am aware of this much talked topic in Stickamers group pages because personally I am one of them whom this person that I am about to mention, are being ask for the same thing: "Pwede mangutang?" 
 
Sino nga ba dito sa atin ang walang utang? It's normal nowadays di ba? Oo nga naman, normal sa buhay may utang. Kaso, normal lang ding magbayad. Advice nga ni Dave Ramsey, “Debt is normal. Be weird.” Dapat na nga siguro nating maging weird para lang makaiwas sa utang. ^^.

Andami ko pa sanang gustong sabihin, pero saka na muna. Let's just enjoy ourselves with these quotes nalang sa ngayon ng mahimasmasan din naman tayo.
