When you "borrow" money, do you always give it back? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 94/100. dizzblnd (1133)   ranked 303 out of 28,865 in life6 months ago

Now I am not talking about a large amount of money here. I mean if you are at work and you are short some change for the vending machine and you ask a co-worker for some change. Do you ever return it (either the next day or as a return the favor)? Or are you one of those people that don't "borrow" but take. I thought I had money for the machine yesterday, but all I found was a $10 bill. I asked my co-worker for change for a 10 and she asked me what I needed and gave me $1.25 for my bagel because she didn't have it. I later found $1.25 in change and tried to give it back to her. She said.. "don't worry about it.. just return the favor"

Are you a returner.. or a keeper?

True.. with family, you can make it up in different ways... buying dinner, driving somewhere, paying for a movie ..etc. Sometimes I think its better to give back in these ways, I think it shows how much you appreciate what they did for you.

I always return any money that I lend, but to be honest with you I do not lend money. It is the fastest way to get into trouble! I learnt that at an early stage in life. I have lent money from people before and then found it really hard to pay back which then causes problems for everyone!


myLot reputation of 94/100. dizzblnd (1133)   ranked 303 out of 28,865 in life  6 months ago

Again.. I am only talking about pocket changes a nickle here 50 cents there lol Not so much muny that it would cause problems.. but I do understand what you mean abiout that. I have been burned 1 too many times cuz I have a big heart. glare

I don't like to lend from other because I don't want to owe others unless I know I will be able to pay back. And for the same reason, I will definitely pay back as soon as possible.=D

Owing someone money is NOT a good feeling

I definitely return money when I borrow it. I rarely borrow it though, pride seems to get in the way.

I always pay back, it would weigh on my mind if I didn't. I've had people "borrow" money before and not pay it back and I don't think very well of them.


myLot reputation of 94/100. dizzblnd (1133)   ranked 303 out of 28,865 in life  5 months ago

I am like yo i wanting to pay it back.. however.. if its just pocket change that's owed to me.. I don't sweat it too much, my coworkers that borrow from me or vice versa are also my friends so we know if we need it.. it's there.

Hey dizzblnd First of all I am to clear that I never borrow money from others even if it is urgent. My father told me one thing that do not borrow money from others or e from your relatives unless until it is so urgency. Further if you borrow then always try to repay within 24 hrs as borrowing money is not a good habit. So I first try not to borrow but in case of exigency or urgency I borrow I try to refund the same in the very next day as I feel uneasy if I do not pay borrowed money. I pray before god that such days never come to my life.

That is a good philosophy to live by. What about if you are a nickel short for the vending machine... do you ask someone for a nickel.. or do you just go without?

I am like you, and always try to return the money if I can. I feel it is best to always return what you borrow from someone if you can, as the favor will come back to you usually three fold in the end. It bugs me when there are people that are always take, take, take or always borrowing things from someone never offering to help pay them back. I sometimes wonder how they can even ever live with themselves as well.


myLot reputation of 94/100. dizzblnd (1133)   ranked 303 out of 28,865 in life  5 months ago

There are people at work whom I don't lend even pocket change to, because they take off work early all the time (with no pay approved by and not penalized by management), then cry and complain that they are broke. THAT drives me crazy! So I will not lend to them.
