There are many considerations that we have to think about before distributing our hard earned money. What creditors do we owe? What bills are due? How much can or will my family need for the next two weeks or month. All kind of important decisions have to be made prior to writing out the checks.

While we earn the money, quite a bit of it is taken from us before our payroll even prints the check. This can be irritating.

 There are no saints, all fall short. The more someone proclaims their saintly demeanor is more of a warning sign that they are hiding something.

Before they put on the starched suit and cologne, before they shave and brush their hair / teeth, before they put on their "I'm really happy to see you" Sunday Smile, they're just as frail and wretched as the rest of us. Sometimes, they're worse.
