There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

Depending on the culture the lion statues represent prosperity, security or prestige.

Where I live the older generation had a tradition to place one or two lion statues on the entrance of the house when their mortgage is paid off. So prosperity and prestige I guess.

The mortgage detail is especially interesting!
