Mitchell gives suggestions to deal with some uncomfortable situations regarding finances that you often encounter.
1. A friend asked how much salary you or your husband.
When you really are talking heart to heart with a friend, such a question is easy just came out. Mitchell recommends that you address this by providing comments, "Our salary is big enough so that it can walk here with you!" If your friend does not catch your point, you can change the subject by saying that you're not going to discuss personal problems.
2. A friend owed to you, but they do not pay it, or even discuss it.
Such a situation is, oddly enough, more to make you as the lenders are not comfortable than a given debt. Because, who's happy-nagih collect debt? But there's no other way to deal with ignorant people like this, unless asked directly (without the charge that he tried to deceive). Try to approach people who owe it, then ask, "When you promise to repay your debts? I should know, so I can calculate the funds in anggaranku." Wait until he gives certainty regarding payment plans. When it came time to pay, do not hesitate to collect.
3. You eat rollicking with friends. Your friends order a main menu and various drinks are expensive, whereas you only order a snack and water. But when I have to pay, they divide the bill equally.
It's a bit late when you realize that this turned out to dinner together to divide the bill equally. Request paying separately will make you seem stingy, even if you have a right to it. Unless you can ask the waiter was to create a separate bill, you really have to pay the bill "just flat" was. Make this experience as a lesson. When will you go out to eat together with your friends again, tell them before going into a restaurant that you will only order a light meal, and wanted the bill to separate.
4. When out with friends or family, they assume that's you who will pay for all expenses.
According to Mitchell, you need to discuss these issues before you travel. Even so, you do not have to bob up and down previous experience. For example, why do you always have to pay. Simply say, "It will cost approximately Rp 100,000 per person. You want to come? "Then when it came time to pay, pay your part, then leave your friend to finish parts.
5. Your friend urged you to say how the price of your clothes, vehicles, gadgets, home, or anything that you think does not concern them.
When there is a question attacked like this, you have no obligation to answer it, according to Laurie Puhn, relationship expert in New York City, the site Real Simple. "If a friend asks about your favorite sex position, do you feel compelled to answer it? No, do not you?" Puhn said.
When another friend this time asking price of your new leather bag, Anna Post, etiquette expert who is also the author of Emily Post's Wedding Parties, recommend to avoid a fine. "If your friends ask you what price your house, say, 'Well, more than my budget is, but I'm happy to buy it'," advises Post. Soon after that, replace the topic of his talk, "Let me see-saw baseball?" Your answer will indicate that the topic is not something worth the price be revealed.
6. Some parents want to give an expensive gift for your child's class teacher, and are more expensive than you want to spend.
If one of the parents of your child classmates had bought expensive gifts, and announce how much should be paid each parent, you can say thank you for choosing a great gift.
