The problem with lying is that people repeat the lies as gossip. Then people may ask for money.


I’m so glad I’m privileged enough not to have family members asking for money. Who does this?


You are lucky you are not related to any poors. They are needy.

That’s not asking someone about their money.

I tell them I'm planning on inheriting and ask if they will adopt me.

If someone asked me about my sex life, I would less shocked than if someone asked about my money.

Why would I tell them?

Who is OK to ask?

It’s never OK. It’s like asking about your sex life or weight. It’s for gossip or malicious intentions.

Anyone who would ask someone how much money they have should be avoided.
