This story tells us never lend money to people no matter what relationship. Most people who borrow money from friends don't plan to return, otherwise they take loans from bank, why do they borrow from friends? I got a lesson after lending money to a friend. She is not my friend any more because she wanted to borrow all my money to buy her house and would not return unless I really needed, and I only lent her $5000. She was very bad to me after i refused to lend her all I had. Now I am not lending money to anybody.
