Honesty in 2024?

The new year has just started, and I am getting scam emails promising me amazing financial rewards, up to $15billion, if I will just send $100 for paperwork but I doubt them to be honest. They often come from reputable people who unfortunately have trouble spelling common English words and seem to be visiting Nigeria for some reason.

Come on, it’s time to wake up – if it sounds too good to be true it probably isn’t.

But there’s more. It also applies to politicians and here the claims may seem even more excessive. I wouldn’t vote for someone who promises me the world on the first day he will be in the job. I just want an honest person doing their best.

Can we make Honesty the theme for 2024? I will check my emails and wait to see.
