Think of it as taking over a house, the previous occupants had indeed mistreated, but were in the process of doing up. They had a very limited budget but decided to pay the plasterer and roofer 10% more than they had quoted.
They gave away some of the budget to strangers.
They decided to pay for the extra expenditure by putting up all the prices in the corner shop they owned, but people didn’t go to the shop, and shopped elsewhere.
They ended up losing the house………
