This is a good article

We can be detached from reality by appreciating truth from a distance as long as it doesn't apply to us in real life and relationship

From all that we see in i3 forum these several years how Uncle Koon treated KcchongNz and later his close confidante Mr Otb all can see this

Uncle Koon should eat humble pie and go apologise to these two aggrieved "friends" he turned into "enemies"

Do write, phone or E-mail them with your sincerest apologies now

sensonic

not only friends
workers and and neighbours and all others also the same

do this

Next time if your friend want to borrow money say Rm5,000

Do this

tell him you are not lending him and no obligation to pay back

then think of your friendship with him

how much are you willing to give him (not lend)

if you think he is worth Rm300 or Rm1,000 just give it to him free

Since he has no obligation to pay you back he will still be your friend

if he is really a good friend he will be grateful and not take advantage of you

if not as the scout says

"Precious friends are like diamonds "

True friends are rare.

False friends are like autumn leaves settled everywhere

Neither a borrower nor a lender be...Shakespeare taught us this
I lent RM2k TO A BANKRUPT who was in need at that time, one month became a nightmare to get back my hard earned money. Once bitten, never try.

My two cents, in real world "Relationship = Benefit" a cruel fact!

Mr Koon, u don't need a loan if you didn't over leveraged your greed.

and i disagree with you on your saying "if he gives it to you without any condition, he is truly your friend"
