You may have a

You may afford your family all

WHY?
Your wealth does your merchant or physician or dentist no
good unless you pay. Your account on his books is unprofit-
able to him if you let it drag for months and months.
But the check you give him when it is due is a real asset.
The merchant uses it to pay his bills with, to buy more goods,
to improve his facilities, to build up his business.
So he gauges you, not by your wealth, but by the manner
in which you pay. If you paid your April bills on or before
the 10th of this month you are GOOD; take sixty and ninety
days and you are SLOW; drag your payments out over four
or five months and your account is UNDESIRABLE.
Every member of this association is in position to know .
your standing—Good, Slow, Undesirable, according to your
habit. Your standing is your rating, and ratings are being
scrutinized very closely these days.
Don't flatter yourself into thinking that those you owe are
giving you credit upon your wealth. If you are wealthy and
"slow," so much the worse.
This is your problem, analyze it in an impartial manner.
Place yourself in the position of the creditor. Could
you extend credit indefinitely to those who did not
