My parents give me a monthly allowance of 8200. Some time ago I lent $150 to two friends. One paid me back months later after I begged and pleaded for the money back, and the other friend just disappeared. I had to borrow money from my sister to pay for my things I learned only to lend money when I don't need it. Do you think I'm right? Clyde A close friend of mine has the habit of asking me to lend her money. Once she still owed me money, but she asked to borrow some more. She promised to pay me back never within a week, but she to did What makes me mad is that she went Mexico on vacation with my money! I don want to lose her friendship. What can I do? Angela
