I get it. I too, got fucked over a lot for having integrity. The world is built around theft, not integrity. Every bank would have us all as slaves. However, there is another kind of reward that exists for those who live life under two basic rules, made by God: your word is your bond, and you shall reap what you sow. Everyone in life is made by God to teach you a lesson.
There's a difference between being honorable and being a gullible fool. If you are an honorable man,only deal with honorable men. Don't make deals with scammers. Don't believe liars. Don't allow thieves in your home. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Anyone who doesn't do this should never be trusted. And anyone who breaks their word with you or tries to scam you,you are not bound to uphold your word.
It's that your compassion sets you up as an easy mark.
You kid yourself that your weakness is actually virtue.
You can not lie cheat or steal and still be utterly ruthless and driven. You can steamroll people who fuck with you or get in your way and still be a decent guy.
Be at peace with some people hating you. I used to be a people pleaser, now im not to be fucked with.

Always make people swear their oaths on something, and make sure they understand you will take it should they break their oath.
Never let someone make an oath to you, if you do not have the power to take that which they swear upon.

an honorable person, family, profession is based upon the conclusion of others.
be yourself and do what drives you and gives purpose. if you ignore yourself, that's dishonorable.
or just kill jews and niggers. that's honorable.
disclaimer : dear letter agencies, I am not telling this person to kill anyone.

But the only way for rules to exist is if there are consequences for breaking them.
Either we start enforcing rules ourselves, or we accept that we don't have to be confined by the rules.
