Re: What saying do you live by?
My father always use to say to me: Don't do anything you would not like me to hear of................. and though he has been dead for nearly 50 years I still live my life by those words.But as for my own saying..........Do unto others as you would wish to be done by!...........sounds grammatically wrong but still.

Re: What saying do you live by?
My dad always used to say "If you haven't got the money in cash, then you can't afford it."That held good for me until I bought my house on mortgage, and my car by monthly payments, both of which are now paid off.
As a result, I've never in my life owned a credit card, only a debit card and I pays for what I gets.
I also believe in that old Water Babies quote by Charles Kingsley: Do as you would be done by, and be done by as you did.
