Money: Mobbed up

Mobbed up

By some people's parents - 18/04/2013 04:01 - United States - Aurora

Today, after years of loaning my mother countless amounts of cash that never get paid back, borrowing $60 from her, and being just one day late paying it off due to food poisoning, she sends a very large man to my door to collect, like she's Tony Soprano. FML

Today, I told my mom I wasn't doing very good mentally and I was looking for some support. She decided to remind me of all of the things I still haven't paid her back for. I'm now an unpaid loan, not her daughter. FML

Today, I asked my mother to pay back the $50 she owes me. Rather than paying me back, she raced off to "work". She's been unemployed for 3 years. FML

Today, my mother woke me up and asked to borrow money. Still groggy, I mumbled where my money stash was. She took all $300 and refuses to pay me back because I'm her son and I "owe" her. FML

Today, I'm 36 years-old, living with my parents, in debt. My mom always wants to solve my problems by giving me money, which she later claims as "borrowed", so now I'm highly in debt with the bank… and her. FML

Remember the promise you made

Today, my mom decided to go against every promise she's made to everyone once again and left us in financial ruin. How? She took advantage of my kindness, and didn't pay any of the money she owes me for driving my car, and for so much more. I'm more than $2,000 in debt now. FML

Today, I discovered that the five-star meal that my friend treated me to last night was actually meant to be repayment of the $200 I loaned her last month. I needed that money for bills and she refuses to give me another cent. FML

Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. FML

Today, after having loaned my girlfriend money after she claimed to be broke and unable to pay her rent and electricity bills, she went out, spent it all on a new purse and phone, and now refuses to pay me back. FML

Scammers all the way down

By Anonymous - 15/09/2024 10:00 - United States

Today, and for the past 2 years, my aunt has owed me money. She just admitted that she fell for a scam, and gave the scammer more than double the amount I'd loaned her. I felt bad for her… until I realized something. When I asked how she had it to give to them, but not to pay me back, she got mad and hung up on me. FML

Today, my mom cleaned out my bank account, saying my "no-good dad" owes her child support and that she'll get it one way or another. FML

People need to stop loaning money to people they know won't pay them back. She should have just let OP keep the $60.

See this is why I don't lend or borrow money.... I don't want to spend what I don't have or give money and not have it payed back.

No more money for her.

For starters, don't give your mom anymore money. She obviously has no regard for you in terms of money issues so don't allow her to take advantage of you again. I'd also tell her how you didn't appreciate the way this issue was handled and you won't be giving her anymore money now because of it. FYL OP, I have had similar issues with my family. I had to cut them all off. Its tough to do and causes issues for awhile but it will work out. Very least result, you won't be out the cash anymore.

I would have sent that guy back with a hospital bill and it would be for me

No no now. That would be the case if you offered the money to her. If she asked for it then she's obligated to pay OP back. I've given my mother money when she really needed because I gave it to her and she didn't ask me at all. If she ever asks me for it she pays me back when she can. Just because you're family doesn't mean free money.

Bleach,sugar,and marbles in her gas tank.Than invite her over for supper and serve her chicken that's been in the sun the whole day.Nothing says "f**k you" quite like revenge food poisoning and a messed up car.
