But much as I love and respect his memory, I don't stick to some of his beliefs so well anymore. I don't borrow much - if it's something I need I figure I should own it, but occasionally I will borrow a tool or a piece of equipment. Like dun, I know some people that I'd loan any material thing I own, and some I wouldn't. Some things though (like say a gas can) I just figure as a donation - I'll lend those to someone in need with no expectation of return. Hopefully they'll pass along the favor...
If you lend a guy $20 and never see him again, it was a good investment!
