Pay Me Now or Pay Me Later
by SUSAN LAUTZ, LPC.
This is an old saying among mechanics. A repairman will often give the owner an honest estimate of the parts and labor it will take to get an appliance back in good running order only to be told, “I don’t have THAT kind of money.” So the owner asks for an inexpensive fix. Then when the machine breaks down again, which it will, he ends up paying what the repairman originally quoted – and then some!
