“Sometimes, one has to be resourceful to get by in life – especially when things don’t fall into one’s lap as they might sometimes do for others around one.

“When I was a lad, folks would always come up to me and say,
‘Son, when you grow up, you’ll have a hard time landing a good woman. These days, women go for looks or money, and since you have neither, you’d better be prepared to be a bachelor all your life.’

“See, I could have run for the hills, become a monk, or given up on life. But I did not. I did find a third way to snag a lovely woman. When all else fails, there’s always charity.

“The moral of my story is this – looks and money may get you in, but you can easily lose either someday. Never give up if you lack both. Your lady may not get a tax write-off, but if you can win her over by appealing to her charitable instincts, there’s no need to write yourself off either.”….”Tips For My Male Buddies”…Miles Alex.
