Yeah! All work and no play makes Alysia a dull... well, you get the diea! Too bad we can't get miles or points from microlending - but there are some nice psychological benefits, as we see our borrowers succeed, particularly when we read about difficulties in some of those lands or we have traveled through there ourselves. A hearty Welcome! from another small businessperson.

(Of course, I also like getting all the points & miles from all the credit card expenditures.)
