People like to talk in the R.D. They (drunken youngsters outside the local colmado) talked about loans for hearing you say something magic like: "I dont need any loan, i have ten zillion trillion shiny american dollars under my matrass in the hotel"
To me, the easiest way I have found to terminate that loan talk was to ask for something in return so inconvenient and awkward that it would almost never have any chance of getting done. These people are quite passive-aggressive, so many times in order to thwart a confrontation they will just tell you what you want to hear. So you will have to up the ante. You have to make it so the tat in the tit-for-tat situation you are going to be presented with is so perverse that this person will never bring up the "loan" again.
I.e. Guy/or woman wants to hit you up for a loan, say that sounds amenable if you get to stab* his daughter. Then you close your request with "there are no free lunches in America."
*stab here is used as a reference to sexual coitus and not to commit an violent act.
Jose...let me start by saying...the locals here that are not trying to get over on you would never talk with you about money or loans or anything of that nature over the phone to a stranger which is what you are at the moment to them. I don't care how many times you have talked to them over the phone, or few times you have seen them on your vacations, you are not part of the "inner circle" yet. Therefore these talks are for a strategy purpose. Next time you talk to this person. Everytime they bring up something that has to do with money, or someone being sick. Reply with a wow I hope everything works out and change the subject! Otherwise if you just want to donate money...how about you help your fellow American, I have a story and everything ...I have a sick three legged dog that will die if he doesn't have surgery to replace his leg and without him I won't be able to keep the ladrons away from my house and if they steal all of my chickens I will starve. And the vet said it has to be done by tomorrow or he can't save the leg...so if you could send me 60,000 pesos I promise I will pay you back as soon as my chickens lay some more eggs and I sell them. I can get to the western union office today if that will be easier for you. PLEASE JOSE your my only hope...my life and the life of my dog depends on you!!! How is that? Not good enough? Ok give me about 10 mins and I can come up with someone else that is sick and on their death bed. :devious:
LOL...but the problem is this is the DR and he/she might just take you up on the offer.

And then you say "I will see what I can do." And then she will say "You can go to Western Union and do it right now." And then I would say "Well you know...dzzz n*%s dont wet themselves."
What have you learned Jose?
so its true u do not need a job?? Only sonething collateral..?well, for the poor much of the life is based on loans, usually at totally crazy rates. one of our workers borrowed money from prestamista to buy a motor. interest rate? 60% for 18 months.
prestamistas will take anything of value as a collateral: a car, motor, equipment, you name it. and trust me, they are not some soft hearted half wit gringos whose eyes fill with tears at "sick ma and pa" stories. these dudes will come to your house and roll ma and pa out of their coffins to sell them if you do not pay up.
