"CREDIT" A WONDERFUL WORD. DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF TO LOSE IT

I'm sure what I'm about to tell you will seem strange to you, it seems inconceivable. My youngest daughter, Ebony, asked me yesterday a question that impressed me in that it is supposed that because of her age and studies, she should know the meaning, then I thought, how can she know about "credit" in a country where that is practically not exists. The fact is that some friends who used to be my merchandise suppliers (I had a bakery supplies business), now sell her the raw material for her business (gum paste in sugar jobs). These friends called her and offered to sell her merchandise on "credit" for 7 days and she didn't understand what it meant. LOL. So I had to explain to her very clearly the meaning of the word and how wonderful the offer had been made. I explained to her that for me, credit is synonymous with trust, it means that people trust you and give you the opportunity to get something now and pay it later or in parts. I told her that when I was young and married her mother, I obtained many of the things necessary to establish a home thanks to the credit offered by the commercial houses, which competed by giving you better benefits, whether in prices, quality of products or conditions. payment, so you had many options to decide. I got my furniture, I got my car and so on until I got bank loans for different purposes. I told her that many people were against credits and said that it was a way to steal from you, because you had to pay more expensively for the products you bought, I understood that this is not true and I never had problems, take full advantage of the credit while I could. Now in my country where credit literally no longer exists, I value more what it means to obtain it and I told my daughter, you are privileged to be given this opportunity, because it is very rare that any company offers later payments, because it can mean losses for them in an economy as bizarre as ours. I insisted, please take care of it and honor your payments on time, that will help you grow. How are you doing with the credits?
