narfey what is character?
DariSH character is quality
harpalani Why not capacity?
johntan1979 Should be E. name
johntan1979 To answer harpalani: Not capacity because they have no problem in paying. Ability to pay is ok.
schweitzdm I guessed capacity too. Turning these into flashcards.
tichas Character is behavior , capacity is ability. You might have the ability or capacity to pay but for unknown reasons you pay late and that is behavior or character.
abellochs LOL about E.
