“As an entrepreneur, fighting small charges such as bank errors or late payment fees simply isn’t worth your time. If you have a finance or office manager whose hourly rate is less than the amount of the erroneous charge, then it makes financial sense for that person to spend time resolving the issue. If that isn’t the case, it’s better just to let it go.

The bottom line? The more you can avoid fighting based on principles, the better: It just isn’t worth it. When your time is worth $1,000 an hour, it’s often best to turn the other cheek.”
