ESCAPE!
PROM THE DEBT HABIT. Debt IS a habit and an extremely
dangerous one for many people. With credit easy to get it is corres
pondingly easy to fall into the habit of being in debt. With an open
account established most people have a tendency to buy more freely
and without proper deliberation. It becomes easy to say “Charge It.”
At the end of the credit period sooner or later (often very soon)
many find that they have bought beyond their ability to pay. Now
they are really on the spot and the habit is fastening itself upon
them. They must, if they are to catch up, buy less for the next per
iod. Now this they find is extremely difficult to do and experience
shows that many times it is not done. The protest is that they “just
can’t seem to catch up.” The truth is, they can’t discipline their
buying.
Io find oneself in this condition is very discouraging and de
pressing and it takes almost exceptional courage, determination and
may I say exceptional honesty, especially if one’s income is quite re
stricted, to make the long hard pull out of the hole. Debt under
mines a person’s financial stability, his freedom and even his char
acter.
Determine now never to be a slave to the debt habit! Pay cash
and save! Be independent and be master
of
the
situa
tion. * Paul the Apostle, a foremost authority on how to
live successfully, put it in these words: “Owe no man anything save
to love one another.”
