English Proverbs - Lend Your Money And Lose Your Friend

Lend Your Money And Lose Your Friend

Meaning:

Lending money to a friend can sour the friendship. If you ask him to repay, he may be offended; if he does not repay, you will be offended.

Example:

I don't like calling Tom for regular chit-chats anymore because he didn't return the money I lent him three months ago. I guess you can lend your money and lose your friend.
