[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would give her a talk. "You might not realize but you've started talking about money and acquisitions a lot this year and that's a big change. What's going on? Would you mind taking a break from it when we talk?" [/quote]

I'd only advise this is if the friend is the type who is open to feedback. Otherwise I'd just quietly scale back how much time I spend with the friend. [/quote]

+1. With some people, everything is money, money, money, OP. It’s not just that, it us always something - they always seem to want what other people have, it’s never enough, and they tend to not know when to stop.

The trying to count other people’s pennies gets old.  Then you realize, they are doing it to you, too. To say it's unsettling is an understatement, because it  soon splashes over to everything - where your kid was admitted to college, etc.

Have you read some of the posts on this board? Back away slowly and stay far away from the toxicity. [/quote]
