Life is trying to tell you something!

There is a young man I know who is married with 4 children. He is very ambitious, a entrepreneur of sorts. He wears nice suits and has the latest gadgets. However he has no stability in network marketing. He make money one month and no money the next month. He refuses to get a job because it is beneath him,he doesn't want to work for anyone. This man has lived in the nicest homes in the best parts of VA but he gets put out for nonpayment of rent. When I suggested moving into something based on income so he could give his family stability he saw that as poverty. When I suggested foodstamps so his children wouldn't go hungry he was to proud but he could humble himself long enough to ask for a handout. This man is caught up in appearance, he is making selfish decisions that are hurting his family. Sadly the people he is trying to impress don't care a hill of beans about him. And the family who does care see him as a leech because he won't get a job. Why does he want to impress people more than taking care of his obligations? There have been many successful men and women offering him the same advice but he wouldn't accept it, he only wanted handouts temporary solutions. He refuses to acknowledge his decisions put him in the mess he is in and he will have to change in order to go forward but until he can admit he has a problem he will never change and his family will continue to suffer. Life is giving him wake up calls but he keeps hitting the snooze button. If you or someone you love is dealing with a similar situation please consider this, every decision you make good or bad will affect your family. And every bad decision has consequences that you will have to deal with. And until the issues are dealt with you will be on a merry go round that no one wants to ride.
