My friend said he needed a hundred dollars.
I offered him a hundred dollars.
He didn’t ask for it
but he did accept the cash.

I made it a loan
and he had difficulty paying.
He had difficulty paying
and I got frustrated.
I got frustrated
which wouldn’t have happened
had I not made it a loan.

Had I given him the money he needed
he would have been fine
I would have been fine
and nobody would have worried
about the money again.

I did not need the hundred dollars
and my friend did.
My concern about repayment
threatened the friendship.

That is the parable of the hundred dollars.
The moral is money is bullshit.
