Be a Cheapskate

One of the greatest lessons that is often learned too late is that of ‘keeping up with the Joneses.’ The anecdote simply says that one should not be obsessed with obtaining as much as the neighbors through any means. Unfortunately, Network Personality (NP) might have been thinking of keeping up with his friends.

Although NP has worked for a significant number of years in the entertainment industry, he has enjoyed his life too much and only recently, did he choose to slow down his social life. A Woman (AW) is being pinpointed as the one responsible for NP’s living a more substantial life. While AW turned NP’s life around, he seems to be in a bigger mess these days.

Despite NP having several opportunities in his network, NP is rumored to have a significant financial problem. Allegedly, NP has been borrowing from his friends and they have been trying to collect from him. Some people would overhear colleagues asking NP when he would pay, and there would be no clear answer. At this point, asking for payment might be a bit hard on NP, as he had just undergone an expensive life event.

With limited financial resources, NP wanted someone to sponsor the significant items he needed for his big day. During the last minute, things had not gone as he had anticipated. He and his sponsor for the items did not agree on the terms, as NP wanted full sponsorship, but the supplier wanted different terms that involved cash and services. As the big day was approaching, the item was still missing. Luckily, Major Celebrity (MC) took over, paid for the said items, and saved the day for NP.

Incidentally, as NP had borrowed from his friends, who could not get their money back asap, people are wondering if this money matter made Close Friend (CF) lose interest to show up when NP needed him around.
