I would go to my husband first. If that didn't work I would go ask mommy hahaha...just like a kid...but yeah if I needed money I usually don't go to the bank first or borrow from friends...but I go to hubby then to my mother or my sisters...no one in this world is more giving or loving than these people...

I call my parents if I ran out of money. But since they are not that accessible, I turn to my best friend. I am glad they are very understanding. But I try to budget my earnings, I do not live beyond my means, so that rarely happens.

That's totally cool...having friends who are willing to lend a helping hand when you need it...but being able to stay within the budget is good too but it's real hard for some...shop a holic hahaha those are the real people that needs a budget to be kept by someone other than themselves...

That's is cool...well you know sometimes you need something and you don't want to go to the bank to get the money you can ask your folks and then pay them back with interest if you want...but my parents are great they don't care to have you return the money heheh and yes I am Chinese I do give them money as well but I am Americanized...meaning they don't expect me to give them money monthly or anything like that...

If I ever needed money or anything of the sort, the first person that I would turn to would be my sister. This is because if I needed money that badly, it would probably be because of somtehing bad haha. And my sister knows how to keep a good secret, or two. Also, she would have no problem lending me any amount of money which i needed.

Yeah it seems as though you only get to know who your real friends are when you are in trouble....I have a couple of friends that are real good and a few who are users...I even have one that does both...she would use me then in time of need she would be there for me then again when I need her she is not there at times...so it best having great family they are there 100% of the time for me...

Of course, my parrents, I think they could offer me till I gratuate from college or I can feed and clothes myself.
Maybe I will ask for my friends, if the number is not so huge. Generally speaking, I do not like ask somebody for money, include my parrends, I feel embrassesed. While I really have no idea, I wiil do it...

Yeah it is pretty hard when it comes to money...I remember when I was younger and didn't really have much money and my best friend asked me for money which I didn't have I said no to her and she was hurt I explained that I don't have the money and I was em brassed explaining to her that I don't have it and I feel that she must have been too asking me...I felt bad not being able to help ...but what I learned is that if I am loaning out money it has to be mine not mine that I borrow from parents or others to loan to someone else...because when I loan money I have to be willing to accept that the loan might be a donation instead...
