  Hey, I'm like 21 years old and my friend, like my best friend ever, genuinely like I imagined her rather than like a long-term partner as being someone in my life.

• 0:32Stavros Halkias?

  Okay, lesbian.

• 0:34Speaker 01

  That makes sense, but.

• 0:35Stavros Halkias?

  It doesn't.

• 0:37Speaker 01

  She was going through some problems with her car and I ended up loaning her like $4,000, which for me was a big amount.

• 0:47Stavros Halkias?

  That's a lot of money, yeah. You're 21.

• 0:49Speaker 01

  I guess I wasn't like that down bad for it at the time, but like it was like zero interest. She could take her time paying it back. Anyways, like a couple of weeks ago, she got a fucking boob job and I kind of thought about saying something before she got the boob job, like, hey, is this, like, are you gonna be good to pay me back? And now she started paying me back monthly. This is the first month where she said, okay, like I can't, like Bill got me this month. I'm, I'm gonna have to wait till after my next pay period to pay you back.

• 1:26Stavros Halkias?

  Damn.

• 1:27Speaker 01

  So, and I know she's, she also took out a loan to get these boobs.

• 1:32Stavros Halkias?

  Oh wow.

• 1:32Speaker 01

  They're really nice, but.

• 1:34Stavros Halkias?

  Well, okay, I'm back. I see where she's coming from. Just give her the money. Just let her keep the money. Why are you being such a fucking bitch? She has awesome tits.

• 1:45Speaker 02

  Thank you for adding great tits into society.

• 1:48Stavros Halkias?

  Why are you being such a flat-chested cunt about this?

• 1:55Speaker 02

  No, no, just a joke. What else we got, Elders?

• 1:58Speaker 01

  I don't want to lose her as a friend, but I do need the money.

• 2:02Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:03Speaker 01

  And I don't know how else to, I mean, it feels pretty obvious that I, that we should, that she should pay me back, I guess.

• 2:12Speaker 02

  Yes, we agree with you.

• 2:13Speaker 01

  Anyways, that's it.

• 2:18Speaker 02

  Um, that's, man, money between friends is, is, is fucking complicated, especially when you don't have it, like when you're young. Lending four grand to a friend, that's, that's.

• 2:28Stavros Halkias?

  Insane.

• 2:29Speaker 02

  That's a lot of money.

• 2:30Stavros Halkias?

  Like when I moved to New York, after like years of saving, I had seven grand.

• 2:35Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:35Stavros Halkias?

  Like to me, that was like, I was like, fuck, this, this is my fucking nest egg.

• 2:40Speaker 02

  I'm starting from here. Yeah.

• 2:41Stavros Halkias?

  I can't imagine being 21 and giving somebody four grand. That's an insane amount.

• 2:46Speaker 02

  No, that's like what I would make one full summer. Like I would have like that left. So I would say you gotta just, hopefully she's using the boobs in like, like she's getting good use out of them. She's maybe gonna, cocktail waitress, OnlyFans, dance, and, and they will be actually an investment and she'll be making money for you. But in the end, I think you gotta set up a plan where you tell her what you said to us. Like your friendship is important. Uh, but it is important that I get this money back. So we need to make some sort of aggressive plan. Like, I'm not going to charge you interest, but you gotta give me a hundred dollars a month for the next 40 months or $200 a month for 20 months.

• 3:25Stavros Halkias?

  Well, that's what I would say is like, it sounds like so far she's been paying her monthly, right? And okay, she missed the, she missed this payment, the month she got her tits done, right? I think it doesn't seem like, this is something that you need, ideally what should have happened is if you loan somebody this money, at the moment they're accepting it, when they need it the most, you get them to just sign a plan, right?

• 3:50Speaker 02

  You just agree to something right then.

• 3:52Stavros Halkias?

  Let's agree to this, like we, you know, whatever, let's, this is like, this will be what it is, you know?

• 3:57Speaker 02

  And just so we don't have any drama between us.

• 3:59Stavros Halkias?

  Just like, yes, I'm having to do it, but this way we don't have to think, we just. Just do what's on this thing, right?

• 4:04Speaker 02

  Right.

• 4:06Stavros Halkias?

  Now, obviously that didn't happen, but this is a good opportunity to sort of be like, hey, I get that this was hard, but like, I really need the money. So can we just outline?

• 4:16Speaker 02

  Right now?

• 4:17Stavros Halkias?

  From now on, so that there's no more misunderstanding, no more whatever, like, can we just like, you know, and even if you don't feel like that's necessary, if you already have a plan in place,

• 4:27Stavros Halkias?

  you should just, I think it's a good opportunity to reiterate like, hey, I just really need the money. We just have to stay on this.

• 4:33Speaker 02

  You have to understand, like, you must understand as someone who needed four grand to save your car, how I might need my four grand at some point as well. Yeah. And the last thing you want to do is like, lose a friend over $4,000. You know what I mean?

• 4:46Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, but at the same time, it's like, if I would say that from the other person's side, it's like, that's who's

• 4:50Speaker 02

  Same thing for them too.

• 4:52Stavros Halkias?

  That's who's in danger of losing a friend. Cause I think the worst case scenario here is like, you lose a friend, you lose your money too.

• 4:59Speaker 02

  Right.

• 4:59Stavros Halkias?

  Like now you're out a friend and you're out like $3,400, you know, I don't know how much she started paying you back.

• 5:04Speaker 02

  Right.

• 5:05Stavros Halkias?

  So yeah, I mean, I think at this point, it's just, the important thing, since she's missed a payment, but it has been on a plan before this, is to just check in and be like, hey, you can't do that. You know, like,

• 5:17Speaker 02

  Right.

• 5:17Stavros Halkias?

  And obviously you don't say it like that. Don't, don't approach her like a bookie.

• 5:20Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 5:21Stavros Halkias?

  But you could just be like, hey, like,

• 5:23Speaker 02

  I saw your browser history. It looks like you're trying to get a labectomy. You're trying to get your lips done.

• 5:29Stavros Halkias?

  You're trying to get Kylie Jenner DSLs on your pussy.

• 5:33Speaker 02

  The dream. Horizontal, like that?

• 5:38Speaker 02

  I would, that would bug me the fuck out.

• 5:40Stavros Halkias?

  I would need a vertical set of plumpies. I don't want them horizontal. That would piss me off.

• 5:47Speaker 02

  Yeah, I mean, it's pretty, it's pretty simple. I mean, the specific that she did go and get a boob job is very funny. But I did like hearing you say they're great.

• 5:55Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 5:55Speaker 02

  You know, I'm like, heterosexuality is a cage. When I, a 21 year old girl's like, my friend got great tits. And I'm like, well, that's good.

• 6:02Stavros Halkias?

  Fuck yeah. I know, it's better, it's better than losing your money for shitty tits.

• 6:07Speaker 02

  Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah, she got one big one in the middle. I'm so, I so regret giving her the money.

• 6:13Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. But yeah, this is tough, but just like, yeah, just, this is the kind of thing you have to make sure does not become chronic behavior.

• 6:19Speaker 02

  And it's very possible. Also, I'm thinking now too, that she borrowed $4,000 to get great tits put on her car.

• 6:28Stavros Halkias?

  Like a truck nut.

• 6:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, truck, truck.

• 6:30Stavros Halkias?

  Truck tits. Just a big pair on the front.

• 6:33Speaker 02

  They go over like over the headlights.

• 6:37Speaker 02

  When you turn the lights on, the nipples pop out.

• 6:39Stavros Halkias?

  That would be awesome.

• 6:40Speaker 02

  Something to think about.

• 6:41Stavros Halkias?

  Elders, can we get the schematics going?

• 6:45Speaker 02

  Can we talk to our boob schematic guy?
