    Making loans to posters.
    Never loan money to posters. There is a reason they are borrowing money; their broke.

    I've made loans to about 5 guys in forumville and only 1 guy, JJGold, has paid me back and I had to threaten him with bodily harm and waive the interest.

    Every city has a pawn shop. I've said adios to things I took to them and didnt get the roll I needed to say hola to them again. Its a lesson we all have to learn.

    To piggyback on this warning a little bit, also a good idea not to get into making sidebets with various posters. OK I can understand somebody you consider a close forum bud that you talk to daily etc, but just in general I think you should avoid them.

              I have asked guys for money and was not broke. It is called having money tied up so I was just looking for quick cash. I have had at times 40k at books and asked posters for $300 cash so no biggie, don't assume all are broke when asking for money.

                          Don't loan money, period. Not to family, friends, strangers, etc. You will never have a problem then.

                            if all your money is tied up then your liquid assets are broke. Therefore your broke.

                                  That is pretty bad if you have to borrow money from a guy that posts on the same forum as you. I have a hard time believing anyone would loan them money. It wouldn't even cross my mind the answer would be a laugh then a no.

                                    The only posters I'd loan money to are those whom would never need to ask.

                                                There's only a few posters I would lend money to but they would probably never really need it.
