I hate lending money. I did loan my brother some last year, but that was so he could buy stock options in a company he worked for for 13% of what they were trading at on the day I sent him the money. He did pay me back with a nice bonus. But outside of immediate family, no way I'm giving anyone more than $50 on a loan. If a good friend of mine endured a hardship...maybe I'm compassionate enough to give out some help without the expectation of pay back. But lend money for a vacation, never.

Well if it's a vacation where I'm guaranteed exclusive broadcast rights to the footage, and I felt I could recover my initial investment by selling it on the Internet, maybe. But I'd have to have a lot of confidence in that person to think I could make that money in today's competitive Internet world of adult themed entertainment.
