Though, dont blatantly break the law either.Good luck.

Honesty is an absolute, especially if you value your reputation.It's not the $500 that would bother me as much as the blatant DOCUMENTED lie. 

We see that blatantly in the USA, especially since the last recession.

I'm also certain there will be blatant disregards of laws in the future, that coaches, mentors, program developers, gurus and investors will continue, to include collecting payments on consumer transactions which is another issue.

If you do a forcible eviction, it is such a blatant violation, you will probably be opening your wallet wide and pleading for mercy (and compounding the problems, possibly creating more serious problems).

The reason I did not say anything about blatantly stirring things up was due to retaliation.

I turned in one very blatant scammer, and was informed by the state he has retained an attorney to represent him.

If you're blatantly thumbing your nose at the law, the outcome will likely be far worse than if you entered into the contract in good faith and decided to assign it (legally or not) due to unforeseen circumstances.

These are just examples of blatant incompetence or apathy.

It was just too blatant an error to dismiss.
