Default Re: How do you feel about people outright asking you for money?

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but alot of it probably stems from the fact that they don't see gambling winnings as money earned. I won about $100 at a home game one time, obviously nothing big. After the game, we went to eat. They all gave me crap for not picking up the check after winning big. Granted, it was their money I had, but they would have never had those expectations if they knew I had gotten $100 for mowing my neighbor's lawn, or some such thing.

And to say it again, don't discuss your personal finances.
