Who hasn’t? It isn’t something I enjoy doing, but something that has been
necessary at certain points. For example, one time my washing machine and
oven broke simultaneously (at the same time), so I asked my father if he
could lend me some money to get a new one. I, of course, paid him back as
soon as I could.
