"He that goes a-borrowing, goes a-sorrowing" nghĩa là gì?
19 Jul, 2021
"He that goes a-borrowing, goes a-sorrowing" = đi vay mượn, về hối tiếc -> nghĩa là vay mượn rồi đến một ngày sẽ phải hoàn trả, thường cả gốc cả lãi.
Ví dụ
Adeola Ranti, a GetCash loanee, says, “After paying for (an) extension (mở rộng), they still behaved irrationally (vô lý) and sent messages to my contacts. How will they clear the rubbish they sent out of the people’s minds? This is absurd.” One of the messages often sent out by some of the loan apps can be very damaging, bringing to the fore a proverb, he that goes a-borrowing goes a-sorrowing.
Private (or personal) debt faces several obstacles (chướng ngại vật) in Nigeria. For one, not many beyond the elite have access to reasonable credit terms. But also, our culture exalts (tâng bốc) the view that debt is inherently (vốn đã) evil. To quote a proverb often used by Nigerians – "He that goes a-borrowing goes a-sorrowing”.
There is a famous adage that goes “he that goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing.” No matter your situation, make up your mind (suy nghĩ kĩ càng) not to borrow or go into debt. Try to cut your coat according to your material. If you are already in debts, list them out and arrange (sắp xếp) them in order from smallest balance at the top to largest at the bottom. Then focus on the debt at the top, putting as much as you can into it, until it is all paid off. Then you can start on a fresh slate.
