~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~
 
 
 
I knew I’d catch hell. George had a thing about gambling being for stupid people and we couldn’t afford to buy another car. He’d have to borrow the money. I knew he’d treat me like I was an idiot for a long time.
 
Now I looked at Paul, hoping my sad story was in my eyes. “I can’t tell him.”
 
Paul shrugged. “Okay. How do you think you’ll avoid that?”
 
Not knowing made me feel weak. I sat back in the chair. “Couldn’t you give me a little time to get the money? I mean, you keep the title, just let me drive it home. I’ll sign a note that says it’s yours. You can notarize it. If I don’t get the money, then it’s yours. If I do, then everyone is happy.”
 
Paul shook his head. “This casino is owned by a corporation. The books are settled at the end of the week, every week. That’s tomorrow. The money has to be in the bank or the title to an asset in the safe. They don’t loan money and there are no exceptions.”
 
I felt like I was going to cry.
 
Paul got out of his chair and came around to sit on the desk, looking at me. “Think about it. If I agreed and you decided not to pay, we’d have to hire someone to repo the car. That increases our losses and I don’t get paid to lose the casino money.” Paul leaned forward and touched my hair. “I’ll bet you could get a personal loan. Such a beautiful loser must have friends.”
 
“What?”
 
“Get someone to loan you the money. Call friends or whatever.”
 
“At three in the morning?”
 
He grinned.
 
I looked at him. The guy seemed to like me a little. At least he wasn’t being an asshole about this and he knew how things worked. I couldn’t accept that there wasn’t some other way to work this out. “My husband will be home late tomorrow and I don’t dare go home without my car. Please, Paul, could you help me? You, not the casino?”
 
He tipped his head to the side, giving me a sly look. I think he was evaluating his leverage. “I suppose that might be possible.”
 
I grabbed at the straw he held out. “Would you?”
 
“Well, as it turns out, I got a bonus check last week and it’s sitting in the bank right now.” He touched his cheek and let his eyes run over me. “We might work something out.”
 
I knew I might be digging the hole I was in deeper. He could demand some outrageous interest rate or some shit, but I was desperate. I had to get through this. Later I’d work out how to get money to pay off the loan. But for now…
 
I gave him my most flirtatious smile. “Please?”

    Phaedrus is one of the dialogues written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, and it explores the nature of love, beauty, and rhetoric. The dialogue is set on a hot summer day outside the walls of Athens, where Socrates and Phaedrus engage in a conversation about love and the art of rhetoric. 
    Throughout the dialogue, Socrates and Phaedrus discuss the power of love to inspire greatness and the role of rhetoric in communication and persuasion. They examine the different types of love and how they relate to beauty, knowledge, and the soul. They also explore the ethical implications of rhetoric and its ability to manipulate people's beliefs and opinions. 
    Phaedrus is one of Plato's most famous works, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars and philosophers today. Its themes of love, beauty, and rhetoric are central to many philosophical and literary traditions, and its exploration of these concepts continues to be relevant to contemporary discussions in ethics, aesthetics, and communication studies.

    This bundle has two titles. Here is a preview of both: 
    1 - Deception, as defined by the dictionary, involves intentionally leading someone to believe something that is untrue. This act is deeply ingrained in human nature, allowing anyone to practice it. Deception can engage either the mind or emotions, leveraging our desire for knowledge or information to manipulate us. When deception targets the mind, it often comes in the form of false or distorted information presented as "knowledge." 
    When aimed at the body, deception involves persuading someone to undertake actions that have concealed negative consequences. However, the gravest form of deception affects the human spirit. This form is particularly serious because it can influence one’s ultimate fate, even though many people trivialize spiritual matters due to deceptive beliefs. 
    2 - How do you encourage someone to eagerly make a purchase from you? How can you ensure the sale? 
    The most effective way to gain someone’s trust and motivate them to buy from you or join your team is to "carefully enter the conversation already happening in their mind." By doing so, you help your prospect see the value of your service through the information you provide, leading them to recognize their need for what you offer.
