About the fertilizer industry, I would like to learn. I have no knowledge. But I am interested in participating if a discussion happens.

I don't think I have been "lucky to have been provided", Amit. I earned it. Whatever is mine is "mine" and nobody has a "right to my means", however unfortunate he or she maybe. If I am giving something to somebody, it is not because I think he or she has a "right" over whatever is mine. I think there is very little that is more unjust than claiming somebody who did not earn it has a right over somebody else's properties.

--> Now assuming that whoever I am "helping" (I prefer calling it "investing in") turns out to be a cheat, if a friend he loses me, which I think would be a very foolish thing for him to do because if he returns the money the worth of his relationship increases and I would be willing to invest more in him the next time he comes along. And by his cheating I bought myself out of a cheat's relationship with what I considered an affordable sum. Therefore, I have one less useless guy in my circle. If it works out, I have one more useful guy in my circle. It is a win-win situation for me. Therefore, when I approach any situation I assume that everybody is acting in goodwill and let the situation play itself out; and I never stake more than I can afford to risk.

My response to your latest comment -

Well Amit, I am against organized charity as explained in my earlier blogs on charity (under "Economics" in my Index). I did consider the possibility that the girl maybe a cheat a decade back. I decided that it does not matter based on the following reasoning. Firstly, I am a selfish guy and I don't sacrifice. This effectively means whoever seeks help, a friend, acquaintance or unknown person I am not giving more than what I value the relation at. The risk/reward equation must make sense to me. That is my risk should be low for a huge reward for the other person (which also happens to be a huge reward for me in the form of pleasantness and a potential increase in worth to the relationship).-->
