Nakakadala lalo na kung mayroon kang pinaglalaanan ng iyong ipon na pera (tulad ng matrikula ng mga bata, pangangailangan sa bahay, mga plano sa buhay, atbp.) These plans or goals take a hit when friends and/or relatives fail to pay you back.

 

Hindi naman sa pag-dadamot pero should the time come na ikaw naman ang mangailangan, tutulong ba sila sa iyo? Ang mahirap kasi these days e nagiging ugali na ng iba nating kababayan na umutang pero wala nang balak mag-bayad. Ang katwiran e mayaman ka naman o kaya e may maigi kang trabaho. They are assuming that you are better off and would be able to quickly recover financially should they decide to not pay back the money they owe you.

 

Though you may not get your money back, you still have your self-respect and dignity intact. The same thing can't be said about them.

 

yun na nga lang ang consuelo de bobo.

As much as possible ayokong umuutang pero may times na gipit tayo dahil may gastos na hindi maiiwasan at wala tayong enough cash so i do borrow sa kapatid ko na binabayaran ko din agad, mahirap pag sa ibang tao dahil nakakahiya. Here's the thing, pag kapatid ko naman manghihiram sa akin hindi ako nababayaran doon sa panahon na ipinangako niya...hehe...oh well

Here's my view regarding this topic:

 

My principle in life is it's better to help those in need rather than be the one asking for help.

 

1. Nagpautang ako sa former high school classmate ko. Then nalaman ko ng scammer pala...may kasong illegal recruiting tapos ipanangutang ang panggastos niya. Siya pa ang galit dahil maliit lang ang ipinautang ko sa kanya. Buti na lang. This was about 2 years ago, wala nang balita kung plano pa akong bayaran. Latest news from my other classmates...masipag pa ring mangutang. Malapit na ang reunion namin sigurado na namang mangungutang ito.

2. Pinautang ko rin ang "former" best friend ng misis ko. P30K at pampagawa raw ng kotse para maibenta na at babayaran ako once mabenta yung tsikot. 2 years na hindi na sumasagot sa mga emails.

 

Ok lang sana kung once in a while you contact me and let me know that you're still planning on settling your debt but can't do so for the meantime. Pero kung bigla na lang kayong mawawala....lokohan na yan.

 

Kaya ang lesson dito...kahit gaanong close sa inyo ang tao..kapag umutang gumawa kayo ng promisory note para may paraan kayong maghabol. Kailangan may terms kung kelan sila magbabayad...kung magmintis or tumakbo...pwedeng ipa-pulis.

As of today, I am debt free. I hate getting a loan from the credit card and unless it is life threatening, I am not going to get a loan from any of my relatives.

As for lending out, my policy is I don't like to do it. If ever I do it, I always assume that I will not be paid, that way, if I lend to a relative or a friend, the relationship will not be broken.

I once lent a considerable sum of money to a co-worker whom I have known since grade school. When it became apparent that he had no intention of paying me back, it was as if he had written off our friendship. There are still times I entertain similar requests with other fellow employees, but only when it entails a negligible amount.
