I think in lending money to someone, it requires taking each situation on its own merit, and using good judgement. In the OP's case I believe it would be using very poor judgement to lend his so-called friend money to go on a holiday.

I had a brother-in-law back East who operated a small grocery store. When anyone did not have the funds to pay for their food, he just took back items until they had enough to pay for it. He did this because he found that if he said they could pay the difference the next time, they never came back.
