Hey PAP!
Hope you're feeling better today.
Must confess to being in agreement with option e as many others, and I know it is very hard to say No to those you love...
But just imagine the difficulties you've had with saying No to your family, and the hell that could break loose if your family found out you'd lent/gave money to someone outside the family, then they'll all be sniffing back round you, and you'll send yourself 10 steps back!
That to me would be a great motivation to stay strong, with everyone irrespective of being family, friend, neighbours best mate's niece....
Say No to everyone, then noone can be upset! xxWealth is not measured by currency0 -
tad update ~
still with option e i dont think it will be good for them but sppically good for me if i give them money and or food. So i am going to let that settle. However i havent been to work today so i will see how she is feeling tommorow :rolleyes:
a good thing tonight is the college group has been split up and we are in a much smaller group. I think they have split them younger and older groups and i am in the older group and there are only 17 of us :j its a new teacher however he is doing it very slowly and he is helping much more. Its hard but we have been thrown in the deep end as we have to complete coursework before xmas :eek:
anyways i am off to bed soon ~ take care all0 -
Glad to hear the maths has improved, nice to be in the older group too

I agree with whats been said before, i think your being very unfair on yourself that you are considering giving up your hard earned money to other people, who may or may not deal with their money sensibly.
I think this should be their LBM and you should hint and nudge them along to it0
