Pretty much the way I see itHere is how I would look at it... I never lend money that I can't lose. So if you aren't hurting for the $3000, and you think this girl might really need it, why not? Worst case, you don't get back the money you weren't hurting to lose. Best case, you help someone out in a tough situation and let her make "payments" to pay off the loan. win-win

The other thing that I always think about in these situations is that while I am not rich, I'm comfortable. It wasn't always that way. A few years back we ran through a terrible stretch of bad luck that almost cost us everything. We were as close as you could get to losing our house, pretty much everything. Wife came down with cancer, couldn't work... Ran into some other problems, like dominos. Before you know it, savings gone, not being able to make ends meet anymore. Luckily for us there were people who helped us through. If it weren't for the family and friends that helped us.. I don't know where we would be. It wasn't easy taking help from others.Now if someone needs help and I can financially can handle it, I will try to help them. Karma.Pretty much the way I see itHere is how I would look at it...

This to me is some of the most asinine tripe I've ever read. AZ, good for you that you're so wealthy that you wipe your ### with hundred dollar bills, but to most of us, 3 grand is not an insignificant amount of money. Unless you are leaving out important details, I see no evidence that this woman is worthy of this money over, say, a widow with kids who lost her husband in Afghanistan or someone facing a serious illness who lacks sufficient healthcare coverage. To name just two. All you've said is you think she's in a tough spot. She's hanging around a bar looking for guys to beg for money, she sounds like a dumb skank to me. All of this comes off as you bragging and you look like a huge jerkoff. Racks?? Really dude? Why don't you write a check for $3K and make it out to a local soup kitchen? Bonus, it's tax deductible. Actually scratch that, make it $25K since you wouldn't even notice 3 grand.Also, if you would actually give this person money without mentioning it to your wife, that sounds like a pretty ####ty marriage you've got there.Pretty much the way I see itHere is how I would look at it...

Close family or friend facing a true hardship, I have that and more to give. What is offensive to me is being so careless with money and bragging about it, when so many out there don't have a pot to piss in. Having money is a blessing, and just pissing away on some skank at a bar when others are more worthy to me is obscene.I love the outrage from the people who are jealous they don't have $3K to lend if necessary.
Please link to me saying 3 grand is insigificant. I would not be hurt financially if she never paid it back, that doesn't mean it's insignificant. I don't 'make it rain' with thousands in the club. And what does being "worthy" have to do with it?

How do you know that she's just "some skank at a bar" and that others are "more worthy?" Talk about offensive - your attitude here is obscene. It's not like some total stranger is asking him for 300 racks.

You're willing to give it away, and your wife wouldn't miss it (not that you're even going to tell her).

Well she's hanging out at a bar, we've established that part. She sees someone she barely knows who drives a Lexus, so she concludes he's loaded, sits next to him and asks for a pretty substantial sum of money. You're right, now that I've worked through it, she sounds like a real peach.Maybe it's just me, I could be on the verge of losing everything, and I'd have more pride than to ask someone I barely know for money.
