Neither borrowers nor lenders nor both be ....

I used to report to a guy who borrowed and never returned. Luckily he did not borrow money but items like laser pointers, stationaries, etc

:faint:

Generally I prefer not to borrow but I am also pragmatic in certain situations, eg.performing costumes.


If I do borrow, I will take good care and return the item with a gift to the person.

If I do lend, I will see if the person is \"ngeow\" like me, i.e. the person will take good care.

So far no one has come to me to borrow big amounts because:
1. I don't look rich enough
2. I probably don't have
3. People around me are all richer
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi All,


What will you do, if your best friend wants to borrow $$ from you, and he/she is verysure you have such amount inside your bank a/c...

[KSP]

"… … … well, well, well, … be prepared to write-off the amount you lend to your friend…"

[MMM]

Yah… prepare to write off the amount.


If not, then find some valid excuses to get out of the situation without "affecting" the relationship.

so.. what are those valid excuses....

Dun think twice fussyMummy, think a hundred times if you need to…

the $ is unlikely to come back.

Make up a story that your DH dun allow or you just lost $ in stock market.
Took $ from your mum and need to pay her back…

[auntieM]

Excuses…family need to change car, send $ to China to build house, relative want to borrow for medical/school fees…


There are many other places one can secure a loan decently, without having to go to the loansharks. Even if you lend her the $, your friendship will be affected.
