I have a $100 bill I want to send to you. It may be in 6 to 8 weeks.
It may be in 6 to 8 months. You're going to pass it up because I
can't give you a precise time? Good thing you are not in my will,
that would make you crazy.


If I had to pay you $75 for your "deal" (promise to send me $100) I
would pass, not because I doubt your word or sincerity to follow
through, but I don't want to add "being concerned about it" to my to-do
list. In fact, unless I pay you something, called "consideration" and
we set at least an approximate time, we wouldn't even have a
deal/contract.

As a friend of mine says, "Everyone needs beneficiaries!". If you are
short on beneficiaries let me know! : )
