A friends tells me about his personal fiances (bills and stuff he has in lay away) I do not talk to him about stuff like that.
He is very set on getting a camper. Two campers he was interested in have sold in the last few months. He asked me a few times to be a co-signer so he can get the camper. I have decline the offers. I told him it is not my fault because his credit is poor I know for a fact he can not afford it. He get a partial social security 765.00/Month (has a bad back) He thinks he can open up a line of credit for $12,000. I've told him he will have to fill out an application for the line of credit. This friend talks about doing stuff. But they do not become a reality for some reason
10 AnswersFriends3 weeks agoDoes a person need good credit to open a "line of credit"?
My friend who is on disability for having a bad back. For some reason he receives a monthly check (Social security Income) He should of had Social security disability income. Some how it got into the wrongs hands of people and he only gets half of what people on SSDI.
He received a letter from his bank. Telling him he can open a line of credit from his bank. The maximum he can borrow is $12,000. He spends most of his monthly check on stupid stuff. He has a tablet and a drone on lay-away at some pawn shop/ Then he is going to try to sell it later on.
For some reason he has his mind on a travel camper. Which he can not afford because of his income. He thinks if he gets approved for the line of credit (12,000) He will use that on a down payment. He has no transportation. He was in an accident with a lady two yrs ago. The cops found an open beer bottle and he refused a sobriety test. So the state suspended his license. It will cost him 750.00 to get them back

4 AnswersLaw & Ethics4 weeks agoIs this friend worth it?
I have this friend who did not work for a number of yrs. Claim he has back /hip problem. He was fighting to get full disability. He finds out he received 50% of what other people get from their disability. He's 49 yrs old. Still lived with his mom, his oldest son (25) youngest son (9) He keeps talking about getting a camper. But no camper. He gets back pay for his disability. ($2,375 out of $9,000) every 6 months. He get his disabilty every month. But it's like $765/month
He ask me off and on to come see him. But I turn down the his request. I've called his phone only to find out it goes to voice mail. I'll tell him I tried to call him. His answer would be I was busy and was not able to answer. I think when he sees my name on his phone he choose not to answer. Which is kinda rude. He finally called later in the day.
He is addicted to pain pills. Takes four pills a day for the pain in his back. He was mad at his oldest son because he would not help him set up a bed for his youngest. So he went to a store to get some liquor. He was getting drunk from that. Half way through our conversation He ask me can If I can tell he was getting drunk. I told him I can not tell....Then ten minutes later. He hangs up on me. No calling back to apologize.
We used to be close. He moved to FL in 1996. Moved back in 2000. He was like a different person he was.

4 AnswersPolls & Surveys3 years agowould this be rude?
I've been friends with this couple for a number of yrs. There is a church that has a free (donations accepted) The breakfast is the third Saturday of every month.
My friend called my phone and did not leave a message. I knew he was asking about the breakfast at the church.
I ended up over sleeping by 10 minutes.
I went to the church )not knowing they would be there.
I sat down and he asked did you get my message he asked. I told him if you do not leave a message I will not call back.
Over the yrs I have been going to the breakfast. I remember it is the third Saturday of every month. I keep telling this guy this, His answer is. "You better call me the day before to remind him.
I stopped calling him to remind him about the breakfast. I've been going alone.
I do not like it when he get started on political or government things. Those things bore me. I try to change the subject. Then goes back talking about political and gov things.
Another time He was rambling about something and I has enough. I finished my breakfast. Excuse my self and told him I have to go... bye

11 AnswersPolls & Surveys4 years agoDoes this seem right? What your input on it?
In the newspaper there was a sticker for a free hair cut. (new clients) The place opened in early June. My other barber has construction in front on her shop.. I hate dealing with construction traffic.
I asked the gal if she knew how to cut a medium bald fade. She told me she did. The cut was nice and I was doubtful as I left. So I went home to check in my hair cut in the restroom (better lighting) She made one area look blocked/ pointy on area.
I e-mailed them a complaint. With in a few days I received an e-mail from the manger. Saying I can come back for a free haircut. Make sure I bring in the e-mail with me the next time I come in.
I could not remember her name (the lady that cut my hair there.)
This time, another lady cut my hair. She did a great job. But I doubt I be returning lol. I like my regular barber and I'm comfortable with her cutting my hair.
3 AnswersHair4 years agoDid I do the right thing?
There this one neighbor (a house down from me) Had a older mustang (late 80 s) Apparently. he had it parked in his garage.
also it did not like it was driven in a long time. So I went to do an errand. For some time the car was back up towards the garage door. Something told me the car had expired plates on it.
I do not know the guy that well and /or I do not want to know him..
I called the cops when I came back from my errand. The lady told me they would send an officer to investigate the car.
I woke up the next morning to get the morning paper, I noticed the car was gone. Either he pulled it back in the garage OR it was towed

1 AnswerFashion & Accessories4 years agoWhat should I tell this friend?
The other night (Sunday) around 12:30a.m. my friend called me, waking me up from a deep sleep. We talked about 40 minutes. He did most of the talking. We used to be close. I used to call him at times, his phone would go to voice mail before the first ring. So I stopped calling him for that reason.
Then today he called me around 8:30 am Tuesday. Again, waking me up . Him: What are you doing? Me: You woke me up,,,, Good bye... I hung up the phone..
He called later in the morning.. His dumb girlfriend, (Yes I really mean it) kept repeatedly coughing.Which I thought was rude... He has volume up on the TV that I could hardly hear him... Again he was rude.. Never has considerations for others. Towards the end of the conversation he told me he will call me later tonight. I told him okay... But i KNOW he will not call me....
Staying the night is out of the question. We live two hours away. He still lives at home with his mom, twenty year old son; four year old (annoying pain in the a$$ to be around) His stupid g/f... I do not know her and do not care for her...
He has not had a job since 2007. Claims he need to be on disability. Has back problem and hips... Has not had any back surgies of any kind. He is the type that does not like working very much or long...
