10. Oh no...that poor woman!
I hope she comes through it all alright, and doesn't fall apart.

You know, I spoke to a lot of women like that when I worked for a bank's credit card customer service division. Women would call asking if we could explain how to read their bank card statements. :wow:
Their husband's had died, he handled ALL the finances and they didn't have any idea what any of the numbers on the bill meant. One woman had no idea how much she should pay, or what she even owed, even though it was HER credit card. She used it, but he paid the bills.

:scared: I was SO young at the time, I didn't have a true appreciation for the true meaning of those calls. I do recall they confused me and made me very sad at the same time.
