Very cool scriptures. You are such an insight...Wow. Very cool scriptures. You are such an insightful person! Yah, the economic mess is upsetting, so I have decided to just stop paying attention and get out of debt and live within my means so I don't have to be personally effected by it. <BR/><BR/>I know someone personally who is getting hit by this credit crunch problem where a bank told her they were increasing her interest and decreasing her available credit. The bank is the Bank of America.<BR/><BR/>I am so thankful that President Hinckley was a prophet and told us to stay out of debt and to be wise and prudent during the times when excess seemed the norm. I think it saved our family some major problems since we have done all we can to live prudently. I feel sorry for those who are caught in the trap.<BR/><BR/>As a side note, my credit card company just sent me a blank check, increased my credit limit, and practically begged me to spend more money and put it on my credit card. So, for those of us with a good credit history and little debt compared to the national average, we aren't hurting.Emily A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17643608048915245152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2062044641165131850.post-51930423256673513192008-10-31T06:28:00.000-06:002008-10-31T06:28:00.000-06:00The other part of the parable is the news that has...The other part of the parable is the news that has come out the last fews days.
