[yabba234]

i know the films are no comparison to the books but im watching this now after already having watched the bbc adaption of david copperfield, and i am so amazed and i will read the books now.. great stories

[irishequalsme]

haha hes getting drunk

[proprietas]

Frugality is cultivated i think, and as Pip was not brought up to know the worth of money, though he may have often felt the lack of it, and he had so yearned after the life of a gentleman, he found himself in a predicament that he did not know how to handle. There are many that know more than he about saving, and who work hard besides, who fall under similar predicament if not worse. This is not to justify him by any means to be sure.

[proprietas]

I think few are the people today who would give a person the means of making their fortune with out having it ever to be know. We love acknowledgment so. This at least is very applaudable in Pip I think.

[Woodlander65]

The worse people to become rich and come good are those who originaly come from poor beginnings. That has always been the case.

[jamierourketen]

pip and his debt! what a disgraceful state to get into! given a great life on a plate,and all he does is abuse it!

[twilight6200]

I never understodd if Pip was learning a trade or something unlike Herbert who seems to be building towards a future -pip just seems to be mooching

[Graizer101]

learning to spell might help

[332synic233]

....how is he mooching if he's paying for Herbert's and his own luxuries? ;)_

[IabiMyshkin]

Because the money has been given to him, he hasn't earned a penny of it- which is why he isn't working towards achieving anything.

[olzm]

thank you, there's no way i could figure that out. it make sense, because herberth's father is the tutor of them

[olzm]

i am learning english, could someone write down for me what drummle say to Pip in 1:45

[TheEditrix92]

"And if he wasn't born to know it, [to Pip] your father should have tutored him on it!"

I think that's what he says. . .

[swimfastfly27]

6:10. Emperor Palpatine is not amused!

[RasMajnouni]

in short,we recieve more than we need and yet often go into material or spiritual debt."Good deeds in this world balance the payment "

[RasMajnouni]

2000 years ago Rabbi Akiva used to say:"All is given against a pledge,and the net is cast over all living,the shop stands open and the shopkeeper (G-D)gives credit & the account book lies open&the hand writes.Everyone who wishes to borrow let come&borrow but the collectors go their daily rounds&exact payment from man with or without his consent;for the collectors have on which to rely&the judgement is a judgement of truth&all is made ready for the feast.

[jamierourketen]

@RasMajnouni was he a friend of jesus?

[RasMajnouni]

@jamierourketen He lived 100 years later,both were Jewish & both killed by the Romans publicly for their faith.Rabbi Akiva had his skin scraped off to the bone by an iron comb for his following of Judaism.He taught : "What is hated by you do not do do to your other {person &/or G-D}"

[loveangel219]

He knows nothing of money management and he's in debt so the first thing that happens is...he gets a load of money. Boggles the mind.
