Perspective: Stop costing people money -- show some RSVP R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Waiters carrying plates with meat dish at a wedding. By Michelle Singletary Michelle Singletary Personal finance columnist Email Bio Follow Columnist May 14 at 4:11 PM Event planners often warn clients about the no-shows.

My husband and I paid for our own wedding and reception. We had saved for a year. Looking at those empty seats made me furious, because had we known -- even up to a few days before the reception -- that those folks were not coming, we could have cut our expenses. “My favorite was the couple who told my daughter and son-in-law, ‘Oh, we didn’t come because someone else asked us to go to a party at the last minute and we thought it would be more fun.’”

Honor your word. If you RSVP yes, show up. Because we receive so many invitations via electronic means -- email, Evite, or Facebook -- there might be the tendency to not treat the invitation as formally as one delivered by postal mail. But the method by which you received the invitation doesn’t matter. Hosts should be able to count on you being a person of your word.

The US Bank can catch me and the KGB if we steal dollars from kleptocrats. With bitcoin we do not catch.

Stop the US economy. Destroy the dollar and replace it with bitcoin)

I would always tell my crew, focus on the money and you will not get any. Focus on the people and you will get your money.

If this means more food for my money...yess $50 for something that sits in the middle of the plate..
