Never lend money to friends unless you are prepared to lose both.

You can politely tell you how you feel the person if (s)he doesn't pay you back in time. Politeness and reality are not mutually exclusive.

I was polite for months when my mate owed me money then I went mad and came down and said I'm not leaving till you get me my money - I'll camp here everyday and take every crumb that comes - I'll sell your TV and xbox to the first bidder.

He could see I was enraged - he paid about 2 hours later but he borrowed it off someone else :facepalm:

If they are clearly taking the piss then it comes down to who is harder.  Which one of you is gonna kick the shit out of the other one really :shrug: depends a lot on who you leant the money too and for what reasons, are they genuinely attempting to pay you back or are they mocking you?  Every circumstance is different but violence usually speeds up the process but then if they are some complete nutjob is it worth fighting over?  Make sure you asses your chances of winning well too, lol.

I know a guy who is soft as margarine and every1 know it yet he deals large amounts of weed.  He works like a supermarket and just charges more to factor in for his losses (thefts) but its so sad cuz hes really trusting and lays on people who you know are going to run off with hundreds a pounds worth of weed. :facepalm:

He is owed thousands now its probably about 40k if he admitted it.  True he has made more than he lost but dam its still 40k of earnings robbed.  Hes even had big boys offer to buy the debts from him cuz they know they can go round and torture or take the money outta these chumps.

I only lend large amounts of money to really good friends and people I can trust to pay me back, even if it takes awhile to get back.

Does it not annoy you that a so called friend doesn't have the decency to pay you back promptly?

It does me because it tells me that money or their enjoyment of spending is rated higher than our friendship.

I persoanlly never borrow from anyone.  If I don't have the money to buy it then I get a job and earn some then buy it.  Simple. lol.  I have forgotton my wallet before but I made sure I paid back the borrowed sum a day early to pay my respects to them for lending and trusting to me.

the general rule about lending money is that you have to be comfortable with and in a financial position to potentially never see that money again.






This is the only attitude to have when loaning money.  I would even tweak it a little and say that you should expect to never see it again.  Give the loan and dispose of any interest in ever seeing it.  If you can't do this then do not loan out money.

tony soprano said that you can't let someone owe you money for an extended period of time because eventually they will feel that they are doing you a favor by paying you back.

in my experience this is very true, It sucks ass hounding people for money, but you cant let it drag out.

I don't have any worries with lending people money, often I'll lend them money and almost forget about it and then a month or 2 later I'll be flat broke and outta nowhere my friends will pay me back. I love it when that happens, especially when they all pay me back at once and its like I got a paycheck that I didn't even have to work for (kinda haha). Mind you, I only ever lend to a select few people that I know and trust to pay me back eventually.

When I owe people money though I don't like it, it sucks and I tend to stress about it till I pay them back.

Man I can't agree more with you about how bad it feels to owe others money. I find it to be one of the worst feelings there is, b/c IME it lasts for the whole period of time I'm in debt. I've gone a week without any substantial food to avoid owing people.

I was rooming with my uncles ex whos a massive drunk and when I left I felt kind of bad cause she was way behind on her bills and she was expecting me to be staying a while longer so I "loaned" her 300. 10 months still hasnt tossed a penny my way. Ive learned not to give a fuck about anyone else, financially.
