So what do you do when your friend, a family member, a boyfriend or a girlfriend asks you for money? Do you give it to them? Do you refuse? What should you do?
This is a common personal finance challenge.
Be careful, because the answer to this question could destroy your relationship. Whether it is lending money to your boyfriend, lending money to family, or lending money to friends - when money changes hands like that it can put a relationship at risk. So loaning money to someone should be done with extreme caution - if not avoided altogether.
The real problem lies with this - why does this person need to borrow money from you? What series of events or circumstances have led to this person needing a loan from you? Is this person bad with money? Are you supporting a pattern of financial mismanagement or financial dependence by financial enabling someone?

Wishing you excellent financial health,
Dr. Brad Klontz
