Basically 7 ish is where people can be flipped from buying or not buying something that isn’t really needed and also the sweet spot where you can have a subscription on credit/debit card for a year or more on something you are not using and just put off cancelling because in the scheme of things it isn’t a mortgage. As an example of NOT following this rule there is a direct debit going out of my account for extended warranty for a VISTA Laptop I had probably in 2006 or 7 that either says I have more money than sense,but I assure you it’s not the former which makes it a contradiction, a paradox or an oxymoron - answers on a postcard please.

Hi Richmond, Well I couldn’t agree more if that is the case, but that was 2 minutes of googling but the general suggestion of contacting “good” Sanskrit related organisations of watch you no doubt know a good few still has merit.
