Do you pay your debts upon losing wagers?
Always? Promptly?

What do you think of someone who doesn't?
Is it ever justifiable to not pay?

I'd be interested to hear some expert opinions
from those members who are well-versed in ethics.

See the FW thread ''Plucked Chicken''. It's about a fellow who pays his debts.

bbarr is probably just a deluded lefty fundie who thinks he won his bet.

The Plucked Chicken is an exemplary tale, from which many valuable lessons may be learned, not the least important of which is remaining true to one's word, even in the face of shame and embarassment.

Bbarr may be more forthcoming in his repayment if he realizes that no embarassment or shame can result from keeping one's word. Bbarr, pay your debt and you will be a dude for doing it.
