    I think we understand each other, and disagree. And that’s fine. I don’t need to convince you. Though I would suggest that you start from a more neutral perspective (at least outwardly) when interacting with someone who needs assistance in the future.

    Anyway, I don’t think I have anything more to add to the conversation that hasn’t already been said, so I’ll wish you luck.

    Thank you for your calm and level-headed discussion. Those are frustratingly rare online. I look forward to talking with you again.

      You as well.

      And yeah, when someone asks for assistance with finances (almost always online), I definitely wait until I see the details before pointing the finger at where the issue is. But when talking about generalities, it’s really not something I can reasonably do, because there’s no hard data to actually look at.
