Episode 760: Unintended consequences

Dan Clements, Your Constitutional Warrior, Tuesday March 21, 2017

Everyday all across America folks make choices in their lives that affect how they live and maybe how someone else lives their lives. Some folks try to see every aspect of a situation, including the unseen and unintended consequences. We can’t know everything before we make a decision, but we try to educate ourselves to minimize any unintended consequences.

When we ignore the unintended consequences or the unseen we are bound to get in trouble to the point that someone has to bail us out. This is definitely true when it comes to going to college and borrowing money to do so. Having to barrow more money than you can pay back for an education is the very definition of a bad financial investment!!!

Daily Bible reading: Genesis 25:29-34 Now Jacob cooked a stew; and Esau came in from the field, and he was weary.30 And Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am weary.” Therefore his name was called Edom.31 But Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright as of this day.”32 And Esau said, “Look, I am about to die; so what is this birthright to me?”33 Then Jacob said, “Swear to me as of this day.” So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils; then he ate and drank, arose, and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright.
