I think everyone would be in agreement with that statement.
There's was a so-called parable out of the bible that I was taught at school and I've not only struggled
to find the account that the teacher told me, the lesson I'm supposed to learn from it still alludes me.
The basic outline is that a Father gives his two sons a bag of money to do whatever they think fit.
The father buggers-off somewhere and when he returns, he asks what they did with his cash.
The first son says he tried through various means to improve the amount and due to poor investment
skills, lost the lot. The father pats his head and responds with something-like 'never mind, at least you
tried'
The second son says he hid the bag of cash under a stone and never did anything with it.
His Pa frowns saying that he was lazy and will never amount to much.
The teacher explained that it's better to try and fail and than do nothing and I agree.
But the bag of money wasn't theirs to use and to respect another's property is a value I would also
have to agree with!
The impression I took from what the teacher was saying is to use other people's money to aquire
a profit is a good thing... like a f*ckin' Banker!
