Hindsight is something that can only be applied to a situation in the past.
That's why it's called hindsight.
The advice I offered can be applied to future transactions, therefore not "hindsight."
Can and should, I agree. How ever, I was referring to bring ripped off by a friend and coworker who I had known for many years. It got ugly. But yes, even though she was a friend and coworker and it felt awkward I should have been more careful. One thing that her brother told me gave me insight into her character. She took $30,000.00 out of her home construction funds and gambled it away in the casino then kept the loss secret from her common law husband. People addicted to gambling from my experience are usually delusional and dishonest about money.
