Rules to Follow When Lending Money to Friends and Family
 
借钱给家人和朋友的法则
 
Lend Just What You Can Afford to Lose
 
借出的数额在你能承受的范围内
 
Your friend or family member may check all the boxesfor being trustworthy, financially stable and reliable, but "things can happen that prevent them from paying you back as originally planned," says Byron Ellis, a Certified 1 Financial Planner (TM)and managing director at Ellis and Ellis, a division of United Capital Financial Advisers 2 in The Woodlands, Texas.
 
If your loanee does get in a bind 3, a best friend or family member is going to be relegated 4 to the end of the payback line, "behindthe mortgage company, the credit cards, the auto 5 loans, etc.," says Ellis. Now,imagine your stress level and the tension that would rise between you both ifyou actually needed that money—and she couldn't repay you.
 
Bottom line: Be prepared for the worst by giving only an amount that, if never returned, wouldn't jeopardize 6 your own savings 7 goals, bill-paying ability or other relationships.
