Be Careful When You Open Your Mouth

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with The Real Estate Investment Institute 1retiredsage

 Be careful when you open your mouth! We all know about telling lies. If you open your mouth and tell a lie or even just making up an answer that sounds good, you'll have to tell bigger and bigger lies to cover/recover from the first lie! Those lies will eventually kill you. Many think like some snake handlers they will build up immunity and so they lie with impunity, but in the end the snake wins.

 

 

 

Be careful when you open your mouth!There's another side to this! I know an old lady who swallowed a lie! She opened her mouth and swallowed a lie. Then she had to swallow bigger and bigger lies until they killed her.

I don't know why she shallowed a lie. But, she shallowed a lie, she's dead of course!

 Be careful when you open your mouth! Think about this the next time you hear about a way to scam banks by hiding money in short sales.

Think about this the next time you hear about entitlement!

 Be careful when you open your mouth! Think about this the next time you hear about a fellow snake handler! Each bite doesn't provide immunity, but rather brings you closer and closer to the old lady's demise.

I believe in most states and Federal law the statue of limitations run seven years from when the fraud is discovered. I don't know why you'd shallowed a lie. But, you'd shallowed a lie. We are all born mortal and we all end up dead of course!  Be careful when you open your mouth!

Best to just stay away from any sort of fraud or lies.  There is plenty of money doing legitimate deals to risk otherwise.

The world can never produce another Burl Ives! He was the best Christian gentleman ever and lived a wonderful life with meaning and integrity.

I believe his songs should be taught to all young children!

Being careful with our speech is critical Bill. Sometimes just better with our trap shut.

Hi Love.

I didn't mean to go political, but it's a great observation. The truth would have been allot less embarrassing.

Whiner Weiner is just plain stupid!

Bill the problem with lies is that you can't remember exactly what you said to begin with.  Hard to remember lies, so it is better to say what you can remember, the truth.

George,

Exactly!

Lies are born pregnant!

They're self begetting.

Like Lays no one can tell just one.

I have a feeling this one was inspired.  No need for me to know if it was or not, just have that feeling.

Entitlement, it knows many forms ...

Great advise that I think a lot of kids need to learn. I think today a lot of parents cover for their children and even lie for them and I think this is a big problem that will only get bigger in the coming years.
