        We all enter into contracts without reading and understanding all of the terms of the contract, but who has time to read and understand pages of small print, or who can afford to hire a lawyer every time they get a new cell phone or buy a car?

You might say that you have not done that, but think whether you really understand all of the terms of the contract for your cell phone service, your cable or satellite television service, the loan for your car, or your lease or mortgage. Is there anything each of us can do to avoid entering into contracts that we do not understand without missing out on things we need and want? Your journal entry must be at least 200 words in length.
