Who cannot live on twenty pound a year,
Cannot on forty.

BIBLE

Matthew 6:12


Once in debt, interest is your companion every minute of the day and night; you cannot shun it or slip away from it; you cannot dismiss it; it yields neither to entreaties, demands, or orders; and whenever you get in its way or cross its course or fail to meet its demands, it crushes you.
