 Lending money. And we're not talking about picking up the tab at dinner or spotting someone for movie tickets. We're talking about covering someone's rent or car payment. A significant dollar amount for you, whatever that may be. But how do you know if you are in a position to help? Or if you just straight up can't? That's a conversation that can involve a lot of guilt and shame. Is embarrassed the right word? What's the feeling I'm looking for? It's hard to, like, not look like, ugh, not seem selfish or not. You're Scrooge McDuck.
