How low can people behave

Like we hearing about hosting events, renovations, donating money etc.

Basically publicly spending and spending in advertising but not paying your bills to a frum small business. I wonder how many others they’ve hurt.😞

Yes, I've dealt with that too. I don't understand the mentality.

Maybe the wife doesn't know about the collecting. Happens.

I was recently treated to a vacation in Florida by a family member who needed company for a trip. I didn't pay a penny for it.
At the same time I'm in a very tight financial situation and owe tuition and in the grocery etc.
I felt like I needed to keep the trip a secret bc I would be judged.
You never know what's going on by someone and it's always a good midda to judge favorably.
(BTW the trip was literally like oxygen for me going through such a hard time bh)

Business & personal finances are separate.
Unfortunately, that's how it is.

I think OP is not talking about business expenses, but personal money owed to a small business.

Or she's an expert seamstress and sews her own, or an amazing shopper and finds metziahs, or has a friend in retail who sells her stuff at cost...
