I Think It is a Little Immature...

I have a big family of my own so I am interested in saving anywhere I can and making money online so I can stay home with my children where I feel I belong.
I asked this person that I know where I can go to get more coupons and where else I can make money online.
And they told me they would not tell me it is a secret because if they told they might not get as much for themselves. I don't know maybe I am the crazy one here but that just seems so immature to me. I am so not like that. When I know about something to help someone else I am the first one to tell them!
If you knew something that would help someone else would you keep it to yourself or help them? Do you think it is a little immature to keep it all for yourself?

its is not immmatured acts the all are doing so are self centred, all they want is their profit they do not want to help others becsuse they do not want other to earn and proliferates, they do not want to explore the possiblity i say they all are introvert.

I agree, it is self centered also. I don't believe in not helping people, I love helping!

hey lovingmybabies,
great one. their is great difference between promising and doing. because i have read a famous books saying " do not promise always try because promises are meant to be broken, but trying leads to success"

I agree with you that it's very immature. I don't like people like that and I fell that they are very ignorant but you will see that in a lot of aspects of life. As an actress I know that a lot of other actors don't want to share where they get casting calls because they feel that, that would mean that there is less acting gigs for them. I'm not like that at all, and everytime I find casting calls that I know my friends would be good for I pass it forward. Whether it's a casting call or knowing where to get a job or coupons or whatever, If I know where to get it I will definitely pay it forward to help someone. Good luck and don't pay attention to people like that.

I don't like people like this either and that's why I do not speak to her anymore. It got on my nerves a lot! I am like you, if I know about something I want to help people out! I don't want it all for myself. I love helping people any way I can. I agree in paying things forward as well. =)

That is not just immature but also a selfish attitude of that person.Does that person think that he or she is the only one in the world to know the way? I am sure there may be thousands of people accessing that particular site.Anyway forget about it.You will find someone else who knows about it and who will give you the info.I would definitely share anything worthwhile with others which would help them.

I hate people who act like that. If they are in need they will come running to you and if you need something...they will just try to ignore you and put you off. I know a person who is just like that and I hate him to the core...we used to study together in college and it was barter system...his policy was give and take...
If he had nothing to learn form me...he would not help me out in my studies...
I just hate such people....totally immature...

The thought of wanting to keep all for oneself is very selfish and greedy. It is very obvious this person doesn't have a good heart. There's a saying - the more you give and the more you share, the more you are blessed. It is God's way of reminding us to always be generous to the poor and help the needy. In return he promised us he would reward us a thousandfold. I'll notify you if I find good money-making sites. I don't have a big family like you, but mothers, especially, should always be available for their children as much as possible. Naturally, mothers need to keep a close eye on their children. It's a dangerous world out there!

I do think that is very immature! Wow....someone can't share where they get coupons? That's pretty sad. This winter when I did a craft show I shared an idea with a friend of mine who never makes her booth fees.....someone came down to me and said...someone is copying you.....I said no...I gave her the idea! They were shocked. But I wasn't going to use it so why not?

It is really sad. I dont speak to her anymore because of how immature she was...
I thought it was so silly. I think its great to help someone when you can! I would do the same thing you did. =)

Hi Lovingmybabies,
It is not just immature...it makes no sense at all. I can't imagine how directing you to some good online sites or sites where you could get some good coupons could in any way compromise another person's earnings. You are not crazy at all but I suspect your friend might be and also kind of selfish if that is how he/she thinks. I'm like you. If I find a great way to save or anything at all, you can bet I'm going to share it with others. It's no loss to me and I'm sure they'll share their tips and advice with me as well. Your friend is gaining bad karma acting so selfishly.

I agree. It didn't make sense to me either! Thank goodness shes not a friend, just a client. I provided childcare for her. That was it but I did so for a while so I never realized she was like that...
Yeah I am the first to help so it really annoyed me!! I am glad she is no longer in my life. And it will come back to bite her, I know it. I feel bad for her when it happens.

I agree, that is immature, because even if I need help too, I am always willing to help others who need extra money..

You know Jill, this reminds me of something. In order for this garage to do a diagnostic on our van, it would cost 25.00. My husband thought he should, that way there would be no guessing on why it sometimes doesn't start, so right before Christmas he took it in and they did a diagnostic.
Then when my husband went to pay him, he said, no charge, Merry Christmas.
That same day I got a call about this rocking horse I have on craigslist for 70.00. The guy tried to get me to sell it for 50.00, but I negotiated him to 60.00. Then later when my husband called to tell me what the mechanic said, I thought when the guy came by for the rocking horse, I'd sell it to him for 40.00. But he calls later and said his daughter found another one, so I did't have that chance..

I think that's just plain selfish!
(And yes, maybe a little immature!) Why would anyone not share such information? Why would they get more if they keep that information to themselves?
I think you should stay away from this person, as she's not only immature, but karma might strike her (and you wouldn't want to be near when it does!).

The only time I wouldn't give people tips is if I was going to invent something (which i couldn't do to save my life) or start a business offline that involved a gimmick of some kind. There is always information online though so why not share it? I mean it is a little immature not to share information online that could be found anywhere online. Its why I wrote that whole discussion on tips to do it. On top of that with all the places offering bonus referrals... if I found a good place for money, I'd be telling everyone to sign up.
Coupons, household cleaning tips, ways to save money and more shouldn't be something people hide from others.

I agree its better to share than to keep it for yourself and I was so super grateful for your discussion! Anyone can find the info if they look hard enough so I dont know what her problem was. I will never speak to her again.

It isn't immature it is selfish Unless they are vengeful! Me? If you are a friend , I will tell you. But... if you wronged me somehow I wouldn't tell you. How can I tell a person who doesn't exist to me anymore. Not only would I not tell but I will revel in the knowledge that an enemy Doesn't know!

I think it is very immature to keep information to themselves. I hope they weren't on your list of close friends because they obviously aren't! I would exclude them from any more heart to hearts. They are obviously just out for themselves. People need to band together and help one another. People are so selfish now days!

Very immature. And also a good way to get themselves "blacklisted" as far as I'd be concerned. No more help for them!

I would agree that is very immature. In fact that's downright selfish and greedy! I'd show people where I get my stuff/coupons/whatever discount there is when I come across a good one. I believe in helping people whenever and however I can.

I feel it was selfish too. I believe in the same thing too. I try helping whenever I can. I would feel terrible if I didn't.

I agree that's a very immature attitude to have yes if I knew of a way to help someone I would do whatever I could to help. by the way you can get coupons either in your Sunday newspaper or online there are a lot of sites that offer free printable coupons
