Wow, this is so relevant. My ex-friend was quite interested in everyone's financial dealings. Based on what she said about others, I kept quiet, except to say I had no debt. I didn't know for sure if she was embellishing or not, but her info about others was intimate and made me uncomfortable. I'm glad I kept quiet because she's no longer a friend and cannot repeat any of my struggles, but is she manufacturing her version of my story? Who knows, as long as I didn't assist.
