One neighbor, Neighbor P, has had a broken furnace for more than two weeks, and has been waiting for pay day to be able to buy the parts needed to repair his furnace. Our other neighbor, Neighbor M, had her furnace go out last week and had her new furnace installed yesterday. Well ... the furnace that was taken out of her house yesterday had the part that Neighbor P's furnace needed, and he was able to go and scavenge the piece he needed for free, take it home, put it in and get his furnace working again.
Important Fact: Neighbor P has two small children at his house.
Both neighbors have heat, and it didn't have to put Neighbor P in the position to decide heat or food, heat or mortgage, heat or insurance? Neighbor M may be making payments for a year to pay off her furnace, but it's doable for her. Not necessarily fun to make payments, but it's doable.
How's that for timing?
