…yeah, I think Ben also has some very sound and good advice because it isn’t just a ‘one fix’ thing and loaning money for instance…?…can provide like a ‘plaster’ type fix in a moment but still might leave lots of other things that could be addressed for lifestyle changes so that it’s not such a struggle for that person…?…those are the things that he’s suggesting also that he adopts as looking at different layers of a situation when someone needs help…
