Give gifts, not loans.
Unfortunately this is a sad but true statement. I think anyone over 40 can tell you this from experience.
On an unrelated note back in like 2007 or 2008 I was approached by Backpack Steve who asked me for $125 to get in a daily tournament and he'd give 50% of his winnings. When I said no, he then offered me poker lessons for $125.
I thought it was pretty funny.
