How many of you still remember your literature lessons back in junior school? There was one phrase that I learned from one of Shakespeares play and it stayed with me all this time.

"Neither a lender nor a borrower to be"..... I'd rather donate the money to him/her if a friend is genuinely is in financial difficulty. If they choose to return it ....fine. But even if they dont return it.... I will never ask them for it.

But there certain categories of people I will never help. Those that get into financial difficulty from gambling and those that are living a lifestyle beyond their means.
