I figure it cost more bad feelings and destroys more relationships than it's worth. If a friend or a family member ask to borrow money, I check my budget to see if I can aford to give it to them as a gift, if I can, then they get it with no need to repay. If I can not, then I have to say, sorry, can't aford it. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

It's just fun to see how others would handle difficult dilemmas. Sorry about our posts today, Auntie and I can't seem to get our act together! LOL! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

If they'd agreed to pay it back, fine. If they didn't in the end, even in small amounts,I wouldn't worry that much about it. But, they had just shown me their word isn't worth anything, and that would be remembered for a long time. To me, it's not so much a question of money but one of integrity.
