This morning, my oldest son asked to borrow $300.00 to $400.00 to catch up and pay off some credit card debt. He's been working two jobs since his divorce in an attempt to pay off debts.

I almost always loan money to my wife's kinfolk when they ask. I've only been "stuck" a few times.

But why do I always feel like a schmuck when I loan people money? Hey, I'm quitired with NO INCOME and watching my porfolio go in the tank in this economic mess we are in now.

I've delayed and put off some needed medical tests for myself because I can't afford the procedures at this time,even with self paid health insurance.

Oh well, I can't take the money with me to my grave, so I might as well help those that need it now.

No actual question here. Just needed to get it off my chest.
I stopped loaning money, when I figured that "family" owes me around $10,000 bucks........

I'm sorry, but I'm not the first bank of GeoFisher..........

I've worked HARD for what I have, and my sister, both my brothers, and my parents...........SPEND like Obama.............and you know what.........they are all **** DEMOCRATS........

My dumbass sister put a car on two CREDIT CARDS.......wow.....and the funny thing.....she has filed bankruptcy 2 times, and can STILL get credit.

Later,
