stingy person?

I had met people who are so stingy, even in the family circle. They are so hard and no conscience, taking the credit of being selfish. For this reason, I just ignore it and thinking they will change in time.

No, I am not, but I always count up my money before buying things. I just want to spend money within the right way and wisely. I don't want to waste my money for nothing. I am not rich. To be rich is my ambition, at least when I need money to settle new family, sure I must have money to support my family. I seldom borrow money, because I knew it was not easy to make money and I really appreciate how hard they struggle to ear their money. It doesn't mean that I am stingy, but we must appreciate our effort and others. Sure, you didn't want someone came to you and ask money from then he was just gone. Opportunity does not strike twice.

I would never never never borrow money to my friends OR ask them to borrow ME money. I just wouldn't do it. It could ruin friendships, regardless of how much it is that they're borrowing or that i'm borrowing. I just wouldn't do it. I have a couple of stingy friends, and that gets annoying after a while.

I'm not a stingy person. I am the one who has lent out money and have never been paid back. Family members have done this to me to the tune of 4,300 dollars. This is 3 different people who owe me all together that amount. They are said I will pay you back but I have not seen a penny and its now over a year for all of them. At least this person has paid you back half and keeps saying he will. These three people don't talk about it and one had the nerve to ask for another loan and I said NO WAY! The gaul!

Hi there, Asliah. No, I don't hate those stingy people. Matter of fact, I admire them because they can live and be happy with less and they are pretty sure not to worry about financial problems later on their lives.Because I am absolutely sure that this kind of people has his own savings. But being stingy doesn't mean you are a bad payor. It is a totally different story. I absolutely disagree. Your friend who couldn't pay you for his obligation is what I merely call as irresponsible debtor (balasubas) and not a miser.He could have gotten the money already but since it is not his conviction to pay you as his duty and obligation, so he wouldn't and couldn't. He is being irresponsible! And I hate irresponsible debtors not the stingy ones.

I have one...But it's much worst than yours...She ask us to to help her with her problem..."CASH" is involve you know.That She need to borrow a check to give to the person she owed.She's very desperate that she promise a lot of things that they will not goin to deposit it in the bank...it's gonna be a show for the husband,because the husband doesn't know about...She left the registration of her motorcycle,which is not hers(own by her Father).The worst had happen the check has been deposited...and ran off...

I'm not stingy or miserly but I do protect my things by taking care of them or limiting who uses them. People don't respect something that is given to them or that they take. If you loaned money to a friend then consider it a gift. If you get some back it nice, if you don't, don't worry about it.

Hi asliah, The nature of the stingy person is difficult to change or make them realize that they should change their attitude. But unfortunately they do not. Once you know a person of stingy nature you should be careful not to lend him/her any money in future.

I have never told that I was a stingy or miserly person. that is something i would never set out to be. i would be very discouraged by that. I hope that nobody ever sees me in a stinggy or miserly light.

The person you speak of is quite inconsiderate as when they needed the help you were very willing. Unfortunately after they borrow the money they run from us as if we were the enemy which is so wrong. I had this experience once and never again, as if a friend comes to ask for money and I truly do not have it, I say I value our friendship too much to loan out money, so if I had it I would simply give it to you as friends and loans do not mix.

My advise to you is not to lend money to your friend. It will spoil your friendship once you lend the money to your friend. I am a stingy person in the way I spend my money. I don't owe money or never try not to pay back what I owe to my friend. When I were young, I were having a habit of spending my money within my affordable level. Never start borrowing money from friends. I shall borrow money from a legal finance company for investment purpose.

I surely hate their habit to live and think that way. Me and my boyfriend have a friend who is that way. Unfortunately he is the brother of the owner of our apartment (the apartment is rented) and we are good friends with him since the start of the last year. Always when he comes home, if we have something for meal of desert or whatever it is, we share with our guests. Sometimes we have nothing and we don't share, but it's more important that in our moments of having, we share everything. At the same time every time when he comes home he doesn't bring anything. I know that he has not so much money, but if we share everything we have at home with him, at lest he can bring something really little to show respect. Once or two times he came with something and first time it was one very cheap butter desert. Just awful taste, full of butter cream, so fatty and i couldn't eat even one piece, what about the 2 pieces he took for each of us. I don't like that kind of people - when i have, my friends has too, when i don't have, just don't have.

Luckily all of my friends are generous not only of kind but also of love and support. Don't worry, stingy persons are not social persons so I guess only a few had them as friends.

yes, I also have friends who like it and it made me upset because of that attitude that I can not accept. but I do not hate him because he is my friend, my only wish just so he could change his miserly attitude it becomes a better attitude.

No, I do not know any stingy people. I know people who lack empathy, which is much sadder. If I give money to someone, it is a gift and does not need to be returned. Expecting return for money that is given to a friend who is in need, would be a sin in my eyes. Not to mention that it would spoil the friendship.

I know someone like that, borrows money but says only a part of it or worse, not pay at all. I also don't like stingy people mainly because they're stingy. I'd love to be there when that same thing happens to them.

i also hate stingy people cuz they never like to spend. they tend to settle for anything less and they are not thoughtful people.

Hi there asliah!!! Actually I know many people with that attitude and as much as possible I really avoid lending them things like money.Whenever i have a friend who wants to barrow money I make it a point to think first and assess if he or she could pay that money back.It is really hard to make money nowadays that is why I am doing extra jobs like what I am doing here in mylot and if some of my friends will be borrowing some money I'll ask them for how long will I be waiting for the payment and also I make it a point to ask them where will they use the money. I one of them fail to payback the money I will try to be more understanding and patient.But if they have borrowed the money for a long time they always make promises that they will pay bu they don't,then that's the time I am getting mad.I am not totally mad that I will pick a fight, what I am doing is to try to avoid lending them money again.

I hate to borrow and in the same time I hate to give loan because of this act we loose our friends and family which hurts more than just money. But if I think the person who is asking me about money his need is based on truth and If my help can pull him out of the situation he is facing. I not only give him money which he need but also forget that money for my own peace of mind :D
