Stupers rarely do. Sarah: Stupers do have a lot of nerve, don't they? Jillian: Maybe, but I also think that most people, being inherently good, do actually want to help other people. I've reached this conclusion even after studying the stupid among us. dawn:

I recently was asked to loan $100 to a friend. She asked if I could bring it to her since she had no car. I live far away from her, but I delivered it. I waited outside her building because I was late for an appointment and asked her to come down and get it. She said she couldn't because she was making herself some coffee! I told her to get her butt down now if she wanted the $! She did finally. I know I'll never get it back, but I felt like she needed it more than me.

From the girl who loaned her brother countless dollars despite never being paid back. Turned out I was the stuper and he was the smart one... until I smartened up. Now no loans under any circumstances. Live and learn! Great advice! From the girl who loaned her brother countless dollars despite never being paid back.
