Money Moral Dilemma: Should my neighbour pay half the cost of replacing the saw they often borrow?
Comments

You may be right to characterise the neighbour as selfish, and the OP as kind and generous. Are you suggesting that the op should become selfish, too?mira77 said:I'm at a loss as to why some posters are considering the value of the saw. whether it cost £5 or £105 has nothing to do with it. Suggesting not falling out over x pounds is irrelevant and misguided. Any falling out would be soley due to the neighbours selfish attitude.
maybe to OP should buy his neighbour a £5 hand saw (to be neighbourly) and say I bought you a present so you don't have to bother asking for a saw.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0
