Answer the following question:

What would you have done with Aunt Jane's cheque if you were in Jack's place? Give reasons for your answer.

When Aunt Jane went to visit the couple at their house in New Hampstead, she was astonished to see the extravagant lifestyle they were living. At the same time she somewhere had a doubt in her mind that all these luxuries couldn’t be afforded within Jack’s income alone. After knowing how they had arranged for loans and bought everything on installments, she felt pity on them and leaves them a cheque of ten pounds. Jack’s weekly installments amounted to seven pounds but her income was only 6 pounds. When Jack returns, Jill tells him that she had sent the 10 pounds to Dr. Martin from whom they have bought their baby in installments. If I were in Jack’s place I would repay borrowings which add up interest and increase weekly installments.
