What Happened to "Responsible Lending"?

Well, you know, what's good for you is good for you. And so on. And sometimes the dollar swings in one person's favor or another. I'm certainly not saying what works for us has to work for everyone. But we happen to work in an industry where work isn't guaranteed to last and we have to be very careful, because who knows when the current TV show is going to end, and who knows where the next show is coming from (and when.) Such is the life of a freelancer - or really, anyone whose industry is based on short-term projects.

It took us about a year to save for our two-week Italy blowout, and it was good that we did because the editing work was more scarce this year, and our budget wouldn't have been as comfortable paying off big credit bills.
