Let's talk about money and friends. Should you lend money to friends? What if we flip the situation, and you're the one in need. Would you borrow money from friends? It is a tricky situation. There's no absolute rule saying whether you should or shouldn't. But let’s admit it, friendships have been broken because of unpaid debts. In this week's episode, Sharran shares his experience being on both sides of the situation and the framework he uses to consider whether to lend money to someone.

At one point in your life, you may be in this situation. So it's best to create your rules to help you decide. Also, you need to consider which is more important -- the relationship or the money?
