"Hook-a-brotha-up" GTFOH!!!

This four word phrase sounds more like a four letter word.  What is it about exchanging money...better yet, LETTING GO of money that disheartens soooooo many Americans?

Ask any true entrepreneur, and they'll tell you, straight up >>> FUCK A HOOK-UP!!!  You know why?  Because when times get tough and business gets slim, where those hook-ups when you need them?  A hook-up can't and won't feed you.

Yeah, I love you; or yeah we have good sex...but at the end of the day...I GOT BILLS TO PAY MU-FUCKER!!!

...ok, ok...enough venting.

But as children we are taught that money and love should be separate.  We are also succinctly taught that money is evil; despite what any Bible scripture says.  So as we are taught that when someone loves you they offer you things freely, by our parents; and that love and money is separate...of course, we'll apply that to business.  Especially when we do business with the ones we love or are familiar with.

Fuck that...WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE, YOU PAY THEM.  That doesn't cheapen the relationship.  If you love someone, or care about them to some extent, wouldn't you want to see them sustain and succeed?  Is "keep up the good work" really supporting them?  How can someone procure the future of their business with an "encouraging word".  I can't take an encouraging word to the phone company in order to keep my phone on so that I can contact my clientele, or anything else that someone's business may involve.

It may be understandable that your funds may not be adequate enough to contribute to the cost of that person's product or service.  If that's the case, THEN JUST BE HONEST AND SAY YOU DON'T HAVE IT!!!  Don't be flaky and irresponsible to guise your lack of funds.  But I digress again.

I think I've hit the nail on the head enough.  The stigma of friends and family expecting things for free is a crippling disease in the economic community.  And because so many people are taught to get without giving, the success hurdle becomes that much more steeper.  I want to propose a question to those to whom this topic pertains...

If you think everything should be free then how do you value yourself?  How far do you expect to go in you're own life, occupational or personal, if you don't contribute to anything?  What do you expect to receive if you never give?  If anything is free, it has no value.
