My cousin just called and asked if I would loan her $300.00 to help her pay her rent. Those who know me, know that I’m always willing to help out friends and family. I told her to give me some time to think about it and I would call her back.
Before I called her back, my aunt called and told me that my cousin was lying and to not give her the money. She goes on to say that the real reason my cousin wanted the $300.00 was to get her boyfriend out of jail so she could be under the same roof as him for his birthday ?.
I thought about it for a minute and decided to give her the $300.00 because we all need help at times. So, I called my cousin and told her to come and get the money.
A couple of hours later, I get a call from the Rockcastle County Detention Center. It was my cousin crying, screaming, and asking why I gave her counterfeit money. My response… so you and your boyfriend could be under the same roof for his birthday!
Bet your were using Monopoly money, tool
Reminds me of the time during a poker game when I took all the money of another player. He wanted to keep playing but was out of cash. This particular guy was very abrasive and to be honest, no one liked the guy. Luckily he did not play poker at this particular establishment very often. Anyway, he asked if I could front him $300 so that he could continue to play and I said yes and gave him the money. Afterwards another one of my friends said, “I can’t believe you gave him money. What if you never see him again?” I replied, “Well then, that will be the best $300 I ever spent.”
