Why do people get so angry when someone owes them money?
Presumably at the time the guy you borrowed the money to was struggling and you were comfortable enough to help him out without putting yourself out of pocket. Yet a week later you all of a sudden expect the guy to be doing okay financially and immediately be able to pay you back?

When i lend someone money i do it with the expectation that i probably won't get the money back and i lean more towards *giving* the person the money and helping them rather than just EXPECTING it back. Usually they offer to give it back anyway but i say i don't mind and let them keep it if it's only a small amount. I don't constantly harass the person and hurry them up to pay me back a small amount of money because if i needed the money back that badly i would not give it out in the first place.

If someone is blatantly trying to rip you off it's one thing, but i don't understand why people get so irate when someone owes them a small bit of money and doesn't give it to them on an exact specific date.

Re: Why do people get so angry when someone owes them money?
I leant a guy I know $20 at a bar and he said he would pay me back on payday. I waited and waited and watched him break 50's playing pull tabs (gambling). I pissed on his tires, that didn't work but when I told him I as going to tell his wife about his affair I got my 20 back.
I can understand when someone is in a tight spot but there are douchebags out there too just to rip people off.

And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what GRACE have you? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
Luke 6:34

Notice the system we have in place. Against grace...we assign a number to a person to determine if they are "worthy" of being lent to....

Because they are SELFISH people that's why. They LACK compassion for their fellow man, they are materialistic and self centered. Period. They want to make things HARDER for their fellow human being rather than make it easy.

Money is paper not backed by anything with any value and only serves to perpetuate the work debt slavery we are all under. period. It's all a big illusion like a dangling carrot for the specific purpose of keeping us under stress, making interest off of us, and keeping us all in a LOW vibration.

I don't "loan" anyone any money so it's not an issue for me.

If you borrow something with the intention of not returning is not stealing.

its also a sign they are more decent people than those that lead..see a banker comes to collect even when they don't need the money...the regular person loans money it doesnt have and desperately needs for themselves

Re: Why do people get so angry when someone owes them money?
Money is debt, which is a system of obligations.

When you are a child, you are forced to go to school, where they mostly waste your time with nonsense.

Then you are urged to take on massive debts to attend college, so you will be obliged to keep working for employers who profit from your labor while you pay your debts, and you are encouraged to buy a house for a massively inflated price, so the bank can profit from your labor while you are obliged to pay more debts.

You accumulate obligations to pay debts while others collect the fruits of your labor.

People in debt are being cheated in a massive systematic way and they know it.

Even a tiny debt is enough to remind them of it - that they have yet another obligation eating up their future and cutting into their present.

Re: Why do people get so angry when someone owes them money?
In my case, I go between having money and then being broke.
Like one time I did good at the casino and a co worker asked for $20 for a bus pass. I obliged. Worked there a few more months before I was let go, but I came in sometimes to see if he had my money yet. Even tried to get the manager to buy the debt for $10, since he would see the guy more and was more respected and could get the $20 from him.
But now the guy moved away so im stuck for the $20. And now I'm broke again.

many sacrifice to lend to those in need. then they themselves are in need due to that. when those you've helped dont return favor feels like visceral betrayal.
money=survival. its primal
