Not that I am in any way making light of your loss. My condolences. But this recent rationalization:
seems quite a bit different from your previous description. It doesn't seem like broke and trying to feed the family when you buy fur coats and trips. Or when you gloat about how you took advantage of the system.
But then, I also think your neighbors who take advantage of store return policies are immoral and should be guilty of fraud. I resent what they've done to make most retailers restrict legitimate returns and raise prices for folks like me who respect both the spirit and the letter of the law.
When your Broke an only have your Credit left to feed the Family? You'd be amazed what you will do..Let alone Give what you can to your Wife who is dying..before she goes..

When the Wife Got Cancer? We ran up all the CC's to the max and then some, we knew we were going to go into bankruptcy from the Medical Bills anyway..
Gave her just about everything she ever wanted from Clothes, Fur Coat to taking several Trips... After She Died, I filed banktruptcy and started over.. The CC debts totaled over $55k back in the Mid 80's...btwn 11 cards.. just paying the Interest on them along the way..and I sold alot of the stuff afterwards and had over $15k to start over with... ;-)
