I remember being mesmerized by hifi gear in PX catalogs in the 70's
Mistakes I’ve made
Lending out audio gear!
Loaned a turntable to a relative- he tossed it in the trash when he was done with it and switched to cd
Loaned a turntable to a friend- he has no idea what happened to it
Loaned a receiver and cassette deck to a relative- he bought a mini system and threw out my gear
Loaned another receiver to a friend- got smashed
what “why did I do that” moments have you had?

+1 @kingsleuy +1 @middlemass Stuff and money comes and goes, but what should be a higher priority is relationships. Generosity is a great virtue, but it must be tempered with wisdom. For instance, if a guy keeps running out of money because he cannot control his spending, he cannot distinguish his needs from his wants, then any additional money won’t really help his problem. If it is a loan, you’ll only be adding to his burden which he cannot pay back. |
