A friend of mine's girlfriend is demanding from him a loan of N750,000 to go and shop in Uk for her shop in Nigeria for. summer. He came to seek my advance and I bluntly kicked against it. Maybe because of past experiences but I will rather give as a gift any amount to a partner rather than borrow.

Ladies and Gentlemen, is your partner Credit Worthy? Can you lend him/her money or go into any business transaction with him/her?

Rocktation: I can lend money to anyone that is close to me and needs money. A neighbour, a friend, a church member. So why not my boyfriend? It all depends on the amount that they're asking for though. If it's one that can be easily forfeited, fine. But if not....I'll have to be really sure that they can pay back.

beblessed: I will give any amount i can afford to give. I believe in sharing ALL dat i hv wit my partner, because i should know his abilities by now. If money finish through him, we go drink d garri n groundnut together!

Mayflowa:

You are such a good woman!
Sadly, this altitude of yours is not good. You may easily be used and pushed around by fake men. You should be shrewd as a woman and decerning. That way you can lead the home front with your loyal support not gullible support!

Men are like babies, u have to handle them with care less u may live a miserable live. Don't accept anything that come ur way no matter how good u are. Be STRONG woman. Dont be a softy!

ayobase:

A gelfrnd, I will surely support her in any way I can, depending on how we relate.but giving her and not lending.

My wife? she gets whatever she needs.....may God help me.
What she has ARE mine, and what I have ARE hers!
Nobody shld challenge my principle here.
Ogugua!

Idowuogbo: Mama still dey write essays ni? Abegiiiii! Rainy or dry day, U no go give ur guy money cus u stingy. Listen to urself, u will push him to great ideas how? Lets say ur guy comes to u in need cus he urgently needs to settle a tight corner, u'll say NO! And offer dis useless lecture abi? SMH!

Basildon1:
Idowuogbo, kindly recieve a hug for that. Me sef dey look the 20 line post ! Instead of just accepting that she doesnt lend out money, SIMPLE and STINGY. Even saying the husband must be a god or whatever?
this is about trusting your partner not to take advantage? His previous booming business suffers a setback due to some new legislation and extra funds are needed above his savings. U will start teaching him business ideas n savings abi

Idowuogbo:

U dis runaway boy don land again? Basi bebe! U dey mind am ni? Na so she dey always write d story of Noah and d ark o! Still d tin no dey ever make sense. Imagine! She will push him to great ideas u no! U sure no d tight ones wen u see dem.Mstewwwww!!!!

acidtalk:


Babe, You harsh oh!
Did she snatch your boyfriend ni?
Kwanu! See as you attack her.

Well I just feel she is making this judgement from past bitter experiences.
She might have been a victim of "lovelost" all due to financial mistrust.

acidtalk:

slimyem: lmao!
Cuddle too like story sha...

No time!
Lol

beblessed: I will give any amount i can afford to give. I believe in sharing ALL dat i hv wit my partner, because i should know his abilities by now. If money finish through him, we go drink d garri n groundnut together!

drzed: For me the keyword here is 'girlfriend'.

If she was his wife, then he can 'borrow' her the money but a man who really loves his wife wont actually expect it back. In marriage, all is for one and one is for all. His things are hers and her things are his, at least technically and in many instances, practically.

As for the girlfriend, what if she dumps him tomorrow?
So the question now for the person in dilemma is: just how much does he TRUST this babe to deliver the money she borrowed?
Therefore, the person who is involved should make his decision based on TRUST (i.e. use your head) and not on LOVE (i.e. dont use your heart).

Of course there are some people wealthy enough to lend out this kind of money without even remembering (e.g. Dangote's pikin). But for most of us mere mortals, N750,000 no be small money o. It can wreck many people's lives and I am sure the person concerned asked for advice because the money matters to him a lot. So use your head and not your heart. Give her the money ONLY if you TRUST her to pay back.

Or better yet, give it to her indirectly. Tell her you dont have that kind of money, but you can talk to someone (e.g. your Area Fada uncle or your Agbero senior brother). Then hire one snarling, teeth-grinding, red-eyed, mustachioed, biceped and triceped no-nonsense-looking guy to pose as the borrower. That is insurance for you.

Thank me later, when she has returned it to you.

acidtalk:

Well let's just say, this is an open platform for different views and like they say, everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion. We can't all speak towards one direction. That's the beauty of life.


On the other hand, do you know a great percentage of people shouting "me and my partner are one", "why won't I?", "I will give and never request for a refund" are all going to be worse than her in reality?

Some people don't have now so they assume they are generous and humble. When they get small money you will see the wolf in that so called partner of yours.

You never know ANYONE (even yourself) until you test him with money.
