Best thing you can do ,especially if it has to do with growing/money is move on and live to grow another day. Not worth the trouble it could bring to you. it's a tough choice knowing that someone got over on you but youll get over it and thank yourself later that you made the right choice.

Friends who take advantage of kindness, are lousy friends. From my expirience, they will never change their welfare-minded, gutter-snipe ways. If you can't cut them off, then cut them out of your world. Those kind of tards rarely change.
If I was paid all that has been owed, I would be sittin much better than I am today. For years I lived and died by the 'front'.
Real friends don't like to ask, and if they do, they honor the agreement. The rest will bleed you for as long as you let them.

I used to share the weightroom with an ex-convict who did about 10 years Federal for his work as a Debt Counselor (for East Coast organized crime).

Spent about 15 years of his life dealing with people owing his employer money.

He also did full-contact fighting and got as far as headlining at Madison Square garden.

He was about 6' 6" and plagued with nerve pain, possibly from using his hands and feet as clubs all those years. When I knew him he was about 66. He married some rich gal with a condo in Rancho Santa Fe.

What I liked about him was his honesty. Let's just say, he was not at all like Hillary Clinton.

His post-prison career was him working at a mortgage lender, as an account guy, signing people up for mortgages.

So he went from debt counselor to debt marketer.

Personally, I don't like people owing me money.

The one exception ... that's the way a lot of dispensaries do business.

If you know a dispensary owner/manager who will first rack up a debt - and then pay it off - well, that relationship is like GOLD.

I have also been ripped off by a dispensary owner, and that does not feel good.

i would sometimes gladly give to the one's i knew wouldn't pay, just to get rid of them, goodluck.

Well... something happened today that surprised me. A neighbor/friend offered to buy the materials I need and supply the labor to put up my privacy fence. He's out-of-pocket a little over $300 and is waiting to be reimbursed/paid. He knows me well enough that he trusts me. Trust like that should NEVER be taken advantage of. I can repay him for the materials in four days and you can bet your bottom dollar I'll do that. I can pay for his labor in a couple of weeks... even if I have to pawn something to do it.

Definitely true! Used to be too accommodating of all friends, but learned....they'll bleed you. Time comes to do a little house cleaning of unsavory "friends" and haven't missed them. Life is too short.
