I just sent this cunt $150k that I managed for him for three years and he hit me up for a $10 debt. He's an only child so that half explains it, but fuck.

Tell him how you honestly feel about the situation and let him know you will never help him with anything again or speak to him.
Fuck that coward, by remaining friends with him you are damaging your own self-respect. Obviously he will do nothing to benefit you ever, he takes you for granted and doesn't deserve a friend like you.

Pathetic. Didn't you buy a bunch of link too? You should be celebrating together over your gains. I'm holding like 10k linkies for my friends and don't expect anything for it.

Honestly OP, this guy trusts you to hold hundreds of thousands of dollars for him. He probably holds you in very high regard to do that. Most people will never have a friend that close. Worry less about the small things in life.

Na, most people don't appreciate the favors done for them and just feel entitlement.

it's not wrong for him to ask for money he spotted you, but if he even consider you a friend he should give you a share of the profits he made.

Thats fucked up. Would you have the stomach to ask for a 10$ debt if you had a friend that gave you 150k?

something someone finish last

I'm probably old enough to be your dad and I'm here to tell ya that that 'friend' will only expect more from you in the future...'whaddya mean you only 3x this time??? I thought you were my friend....you stealing my shit?' is the usual course of events. Grow up. Tell that guy 2% as a 'friend' and ditch him either way if he does or doesn't pay because he's a scumbag for not tipping.

Splitwise is a cost sharing app that automatically splits costs, so if one person buys food, one buys firewood, one buys booze it automatically assigns who owes what. The camping trip was just last weekend and people were only just settling up now.

>>22031588
No, of course not, but it's not worth losing a long term friend over and stewing on it only hurts me in the long run

OPs friend acted in the way we can expect people to react. All we control is how to respond. Doing a good act for someone is a reward in itself. Expecting it to be returned is folly.

I'm getting that book. One of my other favorite quotes is this:
>for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.
It can be easy to forget the importance of humility and unrewarded good deeds but it's the worthiest of goals. Thanks again, anon.

>he didn't know how to use Ethereum so I sent $20 worth of ETH to his ledger wallet

1. So you assume that your friend should automatically know he owes you money... when you know he doesn't know how eth works and you didn't communicate to him that he owes you anything...

2. Pay your debts to your friends asap you fuck
