 That's Washington Post personal finance columnist Michelle Singletary. She and her husband used to lend money to people with the expectation of being paid back. But there was one incident with a couple friend of theirs. We attended a party. They hadn't paid us back when they said they would. And we attended a party at their house and we noticed this big screen TV, which was like an excess of what we had given them. And we're sitting there thinking, so you can buy a $1,500 TV, but you can't give us our money back?
