Re: How Will You Spread Love Once the Economy Collapses?
I have already started and btw I live it without having economic crisis. Example, yesterday I had a call from a senior, I'll call sam and he had a broken pipe(I'm a Plumber) he asked me how much I charged so I told him I have to be paid in cash with banks like they are but I had decreased my rates because of the economy. So went out to his house and fixed his problem, I would have normally charged around 200 bucks but after seeing this poor guy had 3 young girls(grandchildren) that had lost mother to bad child birth living with him and his loving for them and his situation was far from low class status, the girls kept coming up to him saying"I love you grandpa, please don't die" , just broke my heart. I charged him half and would have done it for nothing had I not myself being in very poor financial situation and knew he wouldn't have accepted it(pride) I gave the girls my spare change for candy when grandpa has time to take them to the store and left knowing I had done as much as possible to help him while keeping his pride intact and said a prayer while I left. I could charge 85 to 105 an hour but charge 75 an hour now to help my fellow Americans unless they are rich as hell than they get the full price. I am making just enough to get by but ask God daily to give me work for poorer folks that I can help. I will lower my prices again once I find and get settled into another place to live that is cheaper . I would rather be busy working for less than setting at home worrying about how Im gonna pay the bills. I also offer work for goods that I can sell where those that are in need have something of value but don't need them. Thats what I can do hope others will consider doing the same in their small business's. I find the more I give the more I get. God is truly Good. God's Richest Blessings~
