Just Ask Georgia: 5/24/2023

Georgia, I have a question,

Unfortunately, we have had to postpone our wedding as I’ve been diagnosed with cancer and will be starting treatments two weeks before the wedding.

We’ve received a lot of support and understanding, but some people want us to reimburse them for canceled flights. How do I handle this? Am I in the wrong for saying no?

Pained and Lost

Dear Pained,

My lord, you are absolutely not in the wrong for saying no. Honestly, all of those who asked you this need to be cut out of your life immediately - as they are damaged goods and are not healthy for your future.

With love, Georgia

Georgia, I have information!

Yesterday I was clever. I went to an ATM and withdrew all my money from the ATM, then went inside the same bank and deposited the same money I withdrew, because my money is not safe outside in the ATM. People are just withdrawing and they can end up withdrawing what is MINE. Please let the ATM people keep your money inside the bank! I am teaching you an important lesson!

Mo’ Money-minded

Dear Money,

Ummmmm, no. This is not how banks and ATMs work. Please take a moment to talk with your local bank and find out how it all really works.

With love, Georgia
