How often do you pay someone because you owe them? How often do you give someone "hushmoney"? How frivolous are you with money?

On the off-chance I owe you money, I'll pay it back ASAP but I tend to not be in debt very often. I'm not very frivolous at all because I'm not very well-off I take money seriously.

I don't borrow money ever. I remember once when a friend lent me $1 and it was like pulling teeth for him to convince me to just accept it lol. I just hate the idea of loaning money at all honestly, but I get hit up for it a lot. I keep tabs on who owes me money though, even for my parents and boyfriend lol.

As far as actual spending and saving habits go, I save like there's no tomorrow. I'm not at all frivolous, although I do like to treat myself once in a while.
I borrow money from my father all the time. he quite often borrows money from me as well, though. If either of us wants something and doesn't have the money at that moment in time, we'll just ask the other to get it and usually the answer is yes. It gets paid back in some form or another eventually, be it cash in hand or through buying something the other wants that costs around the same amount.

Taking out a loan for my own personal expenses is not something I would ever consider, though - I don't even have a credit card. I'm not in a position where I'd need to. Obviously in the future I'll have a mortgage and whatnot, but that's not so much a loan as it is an investment. I also have a student loan to pay back, which is around £17k I think, but that's a completely different matter. I kind of needed that to do my degree, and I don't have to worry about paying it back.

I never borrow money anymore. From people I know that is, as I'm building up a nice student debt. I've always been able to pay for something ever since I got access to my own credit card. I'm not a big spender, so I always have some money on hand, and I'd never borrow money for a big purchase.

I've also never given someone money for them owing me anything but that money itself. That seems like a weird concept to me, honestly.

I try not to get into the position of needing to owe somebody money, for any reason...

But if I absolutely have to borrow, I'll try to pay back as soon as possible unless told not to worry about it.
...that's about it, though. You're not getting my money in any other way (outside of stuff like trying to sell me something, obviously).

I currently don't owe anyone any money. I didn't take out student loans, but may have to do so to go back to get my master's degree. I got a credit card this year, but have timely made the payments on it. I find it kinda difficult to borrow money because I can be prideful over it.

Frivolous spending here and there, but I make up for it when I have lunch on $2.15 lol.

if i paid my mom back for every time she spot me a few to make it to the next paycheck i'd be completely bankrupt. But otherwise i don't borrow money.... just owe bills.

though for some reason i can't stand to let money sit in my account. I hate spending and feel guilty when i do, but i'm shocked if i'm ever not in the single digits by the time next paycheck comes around.

I hate owing money so I never borrow - don't even a student loan. I'd only borrow in the most urgent of circumstances, but even then I'd borrow only a small amount. Not exactly comfortable with that sort of stuff.

I never borrow money from people I know. I've had to use student loans a few times but that really can't be helped. Lending money to friends and family, with the key word being "lend", it can ruin relationships. It's why I've always given money to anyone who came to me and needed it.

Well I do borrow money from my classmates because they trust me. But I usually do not borrow from other people because if I did not payback on time, they will be angry with me and do not trust me anymore.
