I've had a hard money guys where I knew.

I owed him money.

A deal didn't close for whatever the reason was.

And I just called him up and said, look, man, I know I said I was going to have your payment and probably be able to pay you off or whatever it was, but I'm not going to have it.

And here's why.

This deal didn't close.

And they've actually, because I had paid so well in the past and been so transparent in the past, the guy was like, listen, how much do you need?

I'm like, uh, like 30 grand to finish.

And he goes, well, let's just amend the contract.

Come get the 30 grand.

I know you're good for it, but because I'd been paying for so long.

And so I was like, I didn't even, that didn't even occur to me.

And then I show up, he gets me a check cashier.

I got a check for 30 grand.

We amend the mortgage.

He files it.

He says, we're good.

I get the job done.

Two weeks later, he gets his check for the whole thing.

But, yeah, had I not called and just tried to dodge him, yeah, that's a problem.
