16-year-old refuses to get coffee with her 17-year-old friend after she paid for her friend’s $7 coffee 5 times and refused to pay her back: ‘I told her that my monthly allowance had run out’
Asking someone to pay you back is a tricky dance. I really don’t have a problem with Venmo requesting exactly how much someone owes me, but a lot of people aren’t that financially confrontational. It’s very common to have a «You get me this time, I’ll get you next time» dynamic, and that’s all well …

Ex-boyfriend reverses his $35K payment on his ex-girlfriend’s student loans after she demands he pays off her sister’s $42K loans: ‘She’s telling everyone I «stole» from her and her family’
You should not be paying off your boyfriend or girlfriend’s debt. I don’t care if they’re struggling to pay it off or are constantly implying that you should be helping them out. It’s a whole different story if you’re married and have made a commitment to each other romantically, spiritually, and financially, merging your financial …

Husband divorces wife for racking up $45K in debt from 7 different credit cards after he paid off the $60K in debt she had when he met her: ‘She even opened a card in MY name.’
It’s easy to look at Dave Ramsey and say he’s a little out of touch. I would think that a guy who makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a month telling other people what to do with their money would be not only out of touch but a little bit scammy. I find his idea …

Sister offers to lend brother $800 for his rent, rescinds offer when he shows up to pick up the money with a freshly-done tattoo: ‘He says our parents make him feel stupid about his decisions’
We all have people in our lives who are just straight-up horrible with money. I’m not one of those people who thinks if I don’t save 50% of my income, I’m going to become homeless, but I think that’s a better way of going through life than mindlessly throwing large sums of cash around and …

Vegan party host orders 4 vegan pizzas, forces his friends to pay for it because he apparently wasn’t hungry: ‘We aren’t going to pay because we didn’t order, didn’t enjoy it’
There is an art and science to hosting a party. If you cook a meal for your friends, you’ll probably have to pay for ingredients you wouldn’t usually buy. You might operate at a loss, but the joy of providing a hot dish to your closest companions is well worth the price of Whole Foods’s …

Bartender causes controversy by adding 20% tip to all unclosed tabs at end of shift: ‘I’m not sure that’s legal’
It goes without saying that in the US, tipping is an integral part of the hospitality industry. Servers, bartenders, and more can’t afford to live without it, and if you decide to stiff them there’s a high chance that you will be shamed for it. There is also a chance that you may not be …

One of the most optimal parts of living in the United States is the ability to split the bill. Splitting a bill so that everyone pays for exactly what they ordered is less common in NYC, but in most parts of the country, it is not only accessible but encouraged. I understand why a restaurant …

It’s no secret that teachers don’t make a lot of money. You meet people in their twenties who make at least $65K for pointless laptop jobs that don’t contribute anything to society, yet the educators of our young can make as little as $45K years into their careers! Just because teachers don’t make a lot, …
