I would have talked to them about your finances . If a Brother can not afford the fees in my YR bodies , we go ahead and let him go through the degrees and pay the fees later or a little at a time till he's paid up . The money is unimportant to us . This is why we are not hounding people to join and shoving petitions in their faces . I think of the York Rite like the Marine Corps , The few , The proud .
