When our baby brother asked me if he could borrow money from me, I asked him what he needed money for… He said he needed a little extra money to afford radiant radiant floors for his house.
- He said he would pay me back, especially since his energy savings would be sizable, but i unfortunately didn’t have the amount of money he needed, however I told him he could always ask our parents.
He said he was afraid of that because our father was always strict, especially when it came to finances. He said that if Dad knew that he was just going to buy a current Heating, Ventilation, and A/C plan with the money, he would entirely never loan the money! Then he smiled and said he could just say that he needed a car, and it was important to be able to get around sites, especially to and from work. I told him he shouldn’t lie about it, especially to our parents but he didn’t listen. The next thing I knew, our brother was getting radiant radiant floors installed. I asked him if he told Dad the truth, but he actually did tell him that his car was shot and he needed the money for a current car, our father didn’t hesitate to lend the money either. I asked him if he felt terrible for doing that, lying to Dad. He said he did think terrible but he was going to come disinfect about it; When Dad came over to visit, he asked about where the current car was. Then he asked if there were radiant radiant floors in the house, my brother came clean, and our Dad said that he should have been legitimate in the first site, he would have loaned the money.
