Title: Gen Z vs. Millennials: Is Borrowing Money the Ultimate Friendship Killer? 💸 Money and close friendship are like oil and water—they rarely mix well together, yet we constantly try to force them into the same space. We have all been there before: a very close friend hits a rough patch and reaches out to you for an urgent financial favor, promising faithfully to pay you back by "next week Friday." Fast forward three months later. Not only have they completely failed to return the cash, but you suddenly see them posting lavish photos on their social media status, enjoying a nice night out or buying expensive new gear. Now, you are forced to feel incredibly awkward just asking for your own hard-earned money back! Because of this experience, some people have a strict, unbreakable rule: never lend money to a friend unless you are completely fine with treating it as a permanent cash gift. If you expect it back, just say an honest no to save the relationship. Others strongly believe that true friends must always support each other in times of real financial trouble, no matter the risk involved. Where do you personally draw the line? Have you ever lost a good friend because of a loan? Let me know your experiences below!
