I will never lend somebody money again

There is this guy who lives in my neighborhood. Let's call him Todd. Todd is about six feet tall and recently lost his job. He was in a desperate situation and had to ask for loan to pay for rent for his place otherwise he would lose it. I lent him $1600 under the condition that he would pay it back when he got a job. Fast forward to a month later when he was hired doing web development and I needed him to pay his money back. He basically laughed it off like I was insignificant and I think he isn't going to pay me back because he thinks that I'm some little schmuck.

 


Has your size deterred you from doing thinngs like lending money? I don't think I'll lend anyone money for that reason at least partially.

I am built and have a very intimidating face (so I've been told), so this is a problem I've never had. I'm the guy that most people will settle a score with diplomatically before things will escalate even though I am on the short side.

Lending anybody money is a ticket to problems. I kind of know what you mean. Sometimes people think because I'm on the small side, they can take advantage of me. That's why I never lend money ever. Doesn't matter if the person is small, tall or a woman. I have myself to worry about dude. I advise YOU not to lend anyone anything. Give to a charity.

Rule #1 - Never lend anyone money. I only give money if I don't expect it back. Never ever lend. When it's time to pay you back they wait. When it's time to pay up, they want i it NOW.

If you can't afford it or are emotionally invested in it, don't do it. This applies to lending also.

I never lend money to anyone period. Even family. I had one bad experience and was never repaid in full... and it took MONTHS. Never again.

 

I would only lend money to a guy I am in a relationship with. It's not lending then is it? Relationships are 50/50.

You learned a valuable lesson. $1600 is a lot of money. It looks like he had no intention of paying you back.

This was bad judgement on my part. Like I said, I will never lend anyone money again. It's not so much that he didn't pay it back, but more his attitude of not paying it back. It's almost like I wasn't acknowledged or was brushed off. Anyway, it's not worth going to court or jail for getting physical.
