Do you trust your friends with money?

Personally, I think I've been burned so many times that trusting anyone with money is never going to happen again with me. I rather dash or gift a friend or anyone money but will never fully trust anyone with my money.

Do you trust your friends with your money? Do you lend them money?

Yes, but it depends on the amount of money involved; I wouldn't entrust all my money to absolutely anyone, but I would entrust some—sometimes even a considerable amount. Generally, that kind of trust is earned over time.

I trust my money in my bank account than in anyone's hands. I can gift my friends money but I will never lend a penny to anyone - friend or not.

I trusted my friendship or 8 years with almost 2 million for a business project, he scammed me and disappeared with my money. He blocked me on every social media platforms and phone number to reach him.

Yeah, I'm done trusting anyone in my life as a friend with my money.

I don’t trust others with my money, generally speaking - and I don’t trust myself with other people’s money. Well, one time my wife was in jail - and I mismanaged her money. I felt really bad about it and she left for a long time. I can’t really blame her - but managing money is a weakness of mine.
