- The art of money getting
- DON'T INDORSE WITHOUT SECURITY
I hold that no man ought ever to indorse a note or become security, for any man, be it his father or brother, to a greater extent than he can afford to lose and care nothing about, without taking good security. Here is a man that is worth twenty thousand dollars; he is doing a thriving manufacturing or mercantile trade; you are retired and living on your money; he comes to you and says:
- indorse: (동) 지지하다. 보증하다. 홍보하다. 배서하다. 이서하다
- thriving: (형) 번성하는, 번화한, 성대한, 무성한
- mercantile: (형) 상업의, 무역의
