As mentioned by a few posters, I would if it was an emergency/extremely important life shattering event, sure. Vacations, new tv, etc? Not a chance in hell.

Parents, yes. Siblings/other relatives, no. Friends, definately no. I generally don't lend money, and when I do, I only lend it under the assumption that I'm never going to see it again.

Not being in your shoes I'm not about to judge the friendship, but if I had a buddy who a) asked for cash for a vacation he couldn't afford (unless maybe it was a destination wedding for a relative or something), and b) got PO'ed when you said no, I wouldn't bother maintaining that friendship.
