If someone owes you money and not pay it back what will you do?
 

realistically?

we all know you are not the mob and you are not going to break his knee.

we all know going to the court is a further waste of time and money.

so what are you going to do?

keep on anoying him every day several times until he is happy to pay you so you stop anoying him :winkwink:

i order hundreds of products frome homeshopping television on his name and adress

A friend of mine owes me $2000... He died... What do you suggest?

First of all, learn the lesson: NEVER LEND MONEY TO ANYONE. :mad:
Then I would, for example, take his/her things and sell them. Watch, expensive shoes, TV, cellular phone, etc.
I mean, if you lend money to someone is because you think you know the person. So I would feel entitled to go to his/her home and grab whatever I think it would pay the debt. This part would be better be done if you go with a "big" friend of yours to watch over things (you don't want things to get out of control there). :disgust

Depends on the amount.
Honestly I have no qualms about using small claims for judgements if the amount is above a given amount.

Then his looser ass takes you to court and also files charges. You loose on both counts. Unless of course you scare them enough to make them fearful of not pressing charges and calling your bluff. Then again some pressure may cause them to do just that because you over scared them.

small claims > get judgement> levy his wages if he is working foor a company on the payroll and such


not hard too do at al

but tbh sometimes its not worth the hassle



b

AMEN to that

if i do anytime in future i will take collateral first... i have been birned already many times this year.... the principle that they try to fuck you and bs u really hurts mroe than the money itself

Depends how much it is... if its a small amount you just write it off and lesson learned. If its a lot then you need talk to them and let them know you want your money back. If you can afford to suggest they can pay it to you over a period of time. Thats what I'd do.

Can I borrow $5k from anyone?

I pretty much just give money to people when they ask to borrow it. If it's someone I wouldn't give it to it's someone i wouldn't lend it to.

Id just let it go... Life's to short and you can make more money... Instead of wasting your time chasing, put that energy into making more money...

That said though, THESE DAYS, I wouldn't lend money to anyone anyway...

Back in 2001 I was doing OK, with the net, and people new that... A lot of people approached me for small 'loans'... I helped them out and got screwed...

Then a close friend of mine asked me for a 'loan' to get a washer dryer... He ha a couple of young kids and his machine had just screwed up... I wanted to help, but didn't want to loose his friendship, if he couldn't repay...

So I BOUGHT him a washer dryer as a gift... I still keep in touch today...

So DONT LEND... Not worth it :)

I agree with you we need to give help to others too

I chalk it up as a lesson learned. Not worth the stress/time

cry......

well i think, ill just tell the lord "he/she is so damn good so please send him to hell!!!

It depends on the amount...how much?

I had that once. A good friend of mine did that, I told him our friendship was over cause I saw no point in continueing as I felt he was a leecher.

He apologised and promised to make it up. So he did and now everything is ok :)

It wasn't even about a lot of money, but for me it's about the principles. I don't care if it's $200 or $20000.

what if its a webmaster? how do you collect then?

No, I'm not the mob - but I get hired by them sometimes, so.. I'd have little problems taking care of it by myself. :Graucho

If I loan $, I do it assuming I will never see it again, If I get it back...I consider it a gift.
