So I lent money to three different people and they've yet to pay me back. Due to this fact, in addition to the fact that I spend money like a mofo, I am broke. Oh sure, I have money right now. $865 to be exact. But now lets take out the rent... Now I'm left with $170... Now let's take out the cable (that I'm paying for because it's under my account ( Read more... )

In this situation, there's not a lot to do at this point without making these people feel like shit...but i'd recommend either NOT lending these people money again, or saying something along the lines of, "I need to be paid back within _____" In terms of bills, I ALWAYS get the money first and when it clears the bank I pay the bills. They can deal with the consequences of that- people need to be responsible because it isn't YOUR job to pay THEIR bills....

I know >.<

One girl paid me back today :)

Now the issue is my other roommate who I haven't seen in two days... >.<

AND, we paid rent today and I'm pretty sure that third girl hasn't :( She's a shop-a-holic. So when she gets money it pretty much just drips out of her hands within hours. Which I find hilarious because she's older than us and you'd assume she'd be more financially conscious. Ah well.
