    Although I don't really have much in the way of debt (at least compared to some) I still wouldn't tell people how much I owed because it is none of their business. Having said that, I'm not embarrassed about saying I can't afford to do something. If I need to say this, it is because I've bought something for the house in cash or it is because I don't really want to go and I use it as an excuse.
  • I am :eek: that someone asked you how much you have in the bank. That is so rude.

    I know, thought he was joking at first, unfortunately not!!
