After reading about the 77 year old Edith Scrivani's credit card
debts in the Providence Journal today ( " Woman's Powerball winnings too
late for some bill collectors " , front page.. Nov.11 ) , I must urge
this extraordinarily LUCKY woman : PAY UP !
It is never too late demonstrate personal integrity, no matter
what the letter of the law.
All her credit cards - a national madness, I understand - suggest a
extremely self-indulgent person. Yes, even the Godfather, Don Corleone,
looked out for friends and relatives. Character is more often seen in the
way we deal with non-family people.
Let me say - a little sardonically - that a now famous rabbi should
begin writing another book : " When Good Things Happen To Bad People ".
Edith, you are 77 years old . The only thing you can take with
you is an honorable life - spent, ALL PAID FOR !
