Real self-respect must be built on something solid—a consciousness ‘of being able to take care of one’s self and one’s obligations, to meet the sudden emergency without flinching, and build a future better than the past. The greatest factor in this kind of self- respect is ability, demonstrated or poten- tial. And the next greatest is money in the bank. . . Most people can have both. Think it over. ] MT.
