If someone asks me for money, I turn around and tell them to be at my house around 10am. I have some job that needs to be done,. The rate is $10 hrs. Thay never show up. That's how I get rid of them.

[@BUGZYFANG]

Not even minimum wage?😂

@Chris Ev be careful watch everything you eat and honestly be alert that's crazy what people do for their inheritance

[@elizagaskell7957]

I transferred $100 into my niece's account to help with her electricity because she asked for assistance and she was a student. I later discovered on facebook she went to a concert. It doesn't take a genius to know what she has been up to . Again Never ever again. Helping family and friends is ok - for example they need a lift home or they need a little bit to help with the rent. BUT if they abuse the boundaries of family, then NO it is not alright to help family and friends; it just show how little they respect the relationships of family and friends.

[@jessiekaylee6496]

How do u kno she paid for the concert or it was bought months in advance....

[@johnniqty7]

In reality. If u give freely from the heart. Only expect the blessings that we feed on from all mighty . Be it $ or other . No human can give what father does.

[@burymebelowawillowtree9243]

Jessie KayLee if she paid it in advance, any decent person would tru to sell it, to be able to solve their own problems and not ask others first.

I never understood it and still don’t. YOU worked for it, and YOU earned it, yet people who didn’t work for it think they are entitled to it. These same people eat fast food and talk about the shows they watch on netflix.

what to do if you are in that situation though

[@merakicedar]

@@AverageAngel you don't give them money

[@michaelwoods4495]

I never lend money to individuals. I give away a lot, but they're gifts. No one owes me for it.

[@buffymcmuffin5361]

Thank you for reminding people not to be enablers!

[@richardbowers3647]

"Decide whether you want the money or the friend?" exclaims Benjamin Franklin.

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

stop throwing money, problem never goes away. as long as you are available to help them they will keep coming back, by the end of the end you will have spent over $3,000 to $6,000 a year. that's your hard earned money. you get nothing in return. will you be willing to do that next 20 years giving away that much?

[@user-ig1zq1jw5x]

What David failed to understand in this situation is that some people do not understand and do not want to learn financial responsibility. You can teach them constantly and they still don’t get it and are always broke.

[@wro4582]

when you lend money, ask for the dollar amount in collateral, furniture, lawn tools, whatever. keep those items until your money is returned, if you're not paid back you chose items you find useful. this will also encourage them to pay you back so that they can get their stuff back. it's fair.

[@Vydio]

"We thought that was a loan" ........ oh brother.

[@MrJimmy3459]

+Vydio Anytime you lend someone money especially family, kiss that money goodbye.

[@SuperTikes]

+MrJimmy3459 Amen...

[@jimbomitchell1000]

I agree. Never lend more than you are willing to give away and always give it away. Never loan.

[@kays3599]

I can see how Dave got so stern…. I’d be bitter too if people were always using me as an ATM… :(

[@av8tor261]

Tell friends and family asking for money this, "Sorry to hear that. If I had the money I would give it to you, I just don't have it."

[@SarahR2D2]

"Don't save her, she don't want to be saved"

[@arethaboddy7490]

Sorry to say she wants to be saved with cigarettes and liquor.

[@timelessmusicfamilymusic9175]

The best way to avoid family & friends from asking you for money is, always complaining about being broke & always paying your bills late. Your sick & tired of paying late fees all the time which is a big RIP off. Complain, complain, complain!!! Even if it's all lies, works for me. No one ever ask me for money🤑

[@notmebutyou8350]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@sensimania]

But at the same time, I don't want to speak anything into existence. I'm financially sound right now, but I might not be if I keep complaining about Phantom late fees, lol!

[@lstone12]

you mail her diapers through amazon to her address.... but yes totally agree with Dave, dont just give the money you have to get into their business because as he said its mismanagement.

[@0neofthem]

Tell them to go to a bank and get a loan/credit card. If they have no/bad credit, they can get a payday loan. If they can’t/won’t do that, then they can kick rocks.

[@Essays4College]

When family ask me for money I tell them go take a 2nd job. If they have an excuse about the kids I tell them "I'll watch the kids while you work." If they still have an excuse why they can't take the 2nd job I tell them "Go %^#@ yourself"

[@notmebutyou8350]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@lady56725]

[@Nonameagain80]

Wow, watching the kids while they work I think is the best offer anyone ccould make- any responsible person would be grateful for it!

[@soxvucago5446]

[@sensimania]

They'll ask you for money to pay for their commute to work until they get their first paycheck

[@yourmilitarymoney]

I like his advice of getting in the ditches with her and hopefully teach her "to fish" as opposed to give her a fish.

[@rexiiforsure9558]

Mike Ramsey has a distinction of being one of the best at getting to the point I.e. relaying a maximum amount of info on as few words possible

[@rexiiforsure9558]

Whoops Dave Ramsey, my bad

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

I cut them off, just say you broke as a joke

[@sensimania]

I tried that. They never seem to believe me (even though I live a frugal life)

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

@sensimania Just ignore the calls. Delete all your social media, start a new one with fake name and information. Just stay away. The way I did mine, I said " you still owe me from last time, can't help you." I keep bringing that up and now they know I mean business 💯. Never heard them asking for money again. Sure I see them on holidays once a yr, they never ask and unfortunately I never got my money back. I'm out 200 dollars over the length of 8 months they been asking for a small amount of money. I kept track of my money and set a limit. Keep this up and you'll be making about 300 a yr from me. Hell no. This bank is closed. If they ever ask, I'll point then to a app they can borrow the money or quick loans they can vist. They will pay back the loans they owe but when it comes to family " later later, someday, that was long time ago"

[@jeanniechristy3885]

Good advice! I’m finding this with my son and his girlfriend.

[@cathywhite6077]

The rule is if anybody ask for money...the answer is no...i dont care who it is...

[@erikab178]

This guy wanted to get paid back $35 for diapers. There is no way he is going to pay for financial peace, help match getting out of debt payments or anything else Dave suggested.

[@satochinakamoto5207]

Like you Dave however.... Hope you read these comments. THE Diapers. They will take the diapers back to Walmart and get money back. SO rip the box apart throw it in the trash and bag the diapers in a plastic bag and deliver them. Next before plastic what they use???? They cloth diapers. So get them a diaper hamper. Then get them 60 cloth diapers and Bobby pins. I'm am exhausted these people asking for money. I saw this guy go to work everyday pulling his lunch cart on wheels behind him. He used to be a breakman on a train he fell an train cutoff his legs below the knees. I watched him pull his lunch cart over gravel on wheels with metal leg extensions. He was a welder for Cobb Mechanical out of Denver. One time I offered to pull his lunch box he was offended. That's a real man. I'm tired of these people asking for money. Almost everytime I pull off a interstate ramp they are their with the cardboard signs. They are hustling you at gas stations, walking up to you in parking lots. I pulled up to Philly cheesesteak shop 20 feet from the door, someone asking money for food. This is America get a rake and earn money raking leaves.

They just want free money. That's been my experience

[@kathryncashner3294]

She undoubtedly knows the system and is on every sort of government aid that she qualifies for. While that is not a lot of money, it is enough to live on if properly managed. We have a church program for single mothers. THere are classes on money management, healthy eating, cooking on a budget, etc. with child care provided, each young woman is assigned to an "encourager," and it is ultimately a 2 year program. Almost every woman has ended the program with a reasonable job, off welfare or a part time job plus community college and working toward that "real" career. It is really the "one on one" accountability that works. And one big rule is that while "gifts" may be given, cash may not.

[@AmberU]

This chick is a hustler

[@edermitt]

No Dave money is fungible. If you buy someone "diapers" they don"t have to spend money on diapers. So they have money to spend on cigarettes. It's as simple as that.

[@karenkramer3760]

Good point

[@MsLucky443]

I wish I found you sooner to pass this info on to people who are insane.

[@hollyhocks7360]

They should do follow ups to see what happened

[@deborahelliott8460]

Hey Dave--would you give that financial peace university to my sister please--She is constantly homeless and makes bad decisions ALL THE TIME! I won't give her any money ever again. I myself am working on step 2.

[@jennym007]

I'd like to know what the fellow ended up doing?...

[@radolfkalis4041]

A permanent solution to diapers, cloth diapers. I agree with Dave, if you want to help, don't give money, give a grocery gift card. If she is posting on FV pics of her with cigarettes and liquor, it sounds like she doesn't want help, she wants a handout.

[@ittakesavillage5461]

Yard sale, and go though your budget and cut everything you can. Save it up.

[@JoanFerreira]

Amazon Prime ships in two days... some even one day... so if she needs diapers, etc... you might help if she can wait a few days.

[@anaq6149]

Joan Ferreira Walmart also delivers...

[@singingallalone]

Sadly this guy isn’t interested in helping. He won’t pay for financial peace university if he considered $35 for diapers as a loan. Loaning money never works. It only creates discord and resentment. Help if you’re going to help. The person needs to make a change on their own. But don’t expect anything back from someone who quite obviously is struggling.

[@davidfoulk3078]

Then she sells gift card on line for .50 to .75 cents on the dollar and goes to a liquor store and gas station...lol

[@jeanlenor1858]

Dave just wasted his time with this guy. He s a cheap guy and certainly won't help her out much. He was waiting for his $35 back.

[@pattyajones]

Duh.

My sister disowned me over a funky $10 Ridiculous. If I had it at the time I would have given it to her. My boyfriend is a foreigner. They are not hiring them like they use to..she has an American. And some family members don't come by for a visit asking for money .seeing how iam doing I could have broken legs .all I hear is I need rent money.

[@Maldito4life77]

That is some really bad advise. Dave ramsey took advantage of the situation to make a profit for himself instead of actually helping this man out.
