RE: Winraky: All In - In STEEM! (Original short story)

I see. He's a figure similar to Caine in the old Kong Fu series. Sure. I forgot that you have to take in a consideration a Hollywood grown audience, where the good guy is always win in the end and twist it enough to put some actual good principles in it. All good.

Sort:  

I see most of the people still don´t know what exist on our earth and just believe what they see with their own eyes.
Thank you for the advice, i can now understand that people might think it is just fiction ;)

Before I begin answering your question, we have to make a few points in the situation clear.
I am clearing up these points, because maybe the problem could've been prevented in the first place, maybe some actions were taking too quickly without thinking through.

  • When you get a new renter, you do some research. Do the renters have a good financial background? Was there still a husband to that mother when they moved in? Was it checked that the mother could keep paying rent if the 2 break up?
  • How is the relationship between me and the mother? Is it like friendship, or just like a "customer" ?
    And if you DON'T know the person very well, how do you know that she's telling the truth, maybe she didn't even ask her family first? Maybe she would ask her landlord FIRST, who she doesn't know well, rather than having a very unpleasant conversation with her parents?
  • She is responsible for the kids. If she can't afford the rent anymore, it's her responsibility to find a new apartment, in TIME, that she can't afford. because she risks losing her kids otherwise. If she can't pay rent at all, she can go to a social facility for women and children.

The mother has a very serious problem. But it's not her right to push that problem onto you. You are only the landlord, not her sponsor. You have nothing to do with her problems.

If you help her, your bank reputation score lowers, or you might lose the property, and make your own future worse.

It won't be great for her either, because she will feel even worse, knowing that she has badly influenced someone else's life.

@soldier Real life could present the weirdest and, otherwise, unbelievable outcomes? I heard some guy fell off the plane without the parachute and survived. However, when you write fiction you cast away everything that happens outside of the mean +/- standard deviation, because of the statistical rarity of this happening. You actually might have somewhere an honest politician, but since most of them are dishonest it’s more believable to show them as dishonest if you happen to introduce one in a novel or a story.

It’s easy to come up with a story, for example, of an athlete that was caught on doping, lost his advertisement contracts and now don’t even have the money to buy himself a cheeseburger. Sort of like Iverson right now. Winraky will tell him with that honest and hard voice of his “Just be a man, stop doping and start training again and in four-year you can win the Olympic medal again.”

I’d challenge the Winraky saga writer to take a crack at a very simple and, unfortunately, common everyday situation. You have a house or a condo that you happen to rent to a single mother with 3 kids. She lost her job, stopped paying the rent and is living on her deposit. You have to evict her because you pay your loan to the bank and unless you get another renter quick you might lose the property that you’ve put much of your money and efforts. But to kick out a woman with three kids on the street is … well, inhumane. What advice would Winraky give in this case?

@mgaft1 I am sure that he does have an answer.
I understand what you try to tell me. I appreciate your opinion but what is a normal way? Is normal what happen to the most people? Is normal what happen to you? We have to describe the word normal way better ´cause for some it is the "normal way" how the story went ;)
Thank you commenting I love to talk about different opinions
