1) You're not very good at poker.
2) You're not very good at bankroll management.
In either case, why would anyone want to stake you?
if you needed a large part of your roll to help a good honest friend/family member, you don't ask questions. you just give what you feel is right.
sometimes that right amount leaves you underrolled for a game that you crush
hence the need to be staked; adversity opens the store of opportunity
