48 Entitled Friends Who Had Some Truly Wild Expectations Of The People Around Them
There’s a big difference between being frugal and being cheap. Frugal folks are smart with their money. They budget carefully and look for good deals, making sure they get the most out of every dollar they spend.
Cheap people, on the other hand, go to ridiculous lengths to avoid spending a single penny of their own, often at the expense of everyone around them. And honestly, they can be pretty exhausting to deal with.
So it’s no wonder plenty of Redditors have taken to r/ChoosingBeggars to call out their cheap buddies. Below, we’ve rounded up some of the wildest requests and most entitled moments they shared. Scroll down to check them out for yourself.

Bit Of A Meta Post From A Friend Who’s A Photographer
This is sooo genius that *everyone* needs to plaster their towns and cities with similar flyers! If everyone in a country became aware of these flyers, they’d (I would hope!) feel shame about how they’ve treated people in the past, and would stop expecting people to accept “exposure” as payment for their work! Social media also needs to plaster this everywhere, too. Let’s spread the shame and embarrassment! (I can’t WAIT to see the responses from the losers defending their offers of exposure as payment!)

A Friend Got This Today...wth!
And if you can’t afford a present for your nephew, then don’t bother people preparing for a baby!
Anyone Want To Help Me Respond To This "Friend" I Haven't Spoken To In Several Years?
I am a full time professional photographer
I charge between £350-2k per shoot. Depending on the editing / work involved.
I've had no income for a YEAR as we where forced to close due to covid restrictions.
This girl works in the creative sector. She should know better.
I'd do it, take the photos for free then charge her $100 or so for each photo she wants - the photoshoot was free, the photos aren't.
A Friend Of Mine Just Sent Me This. Why Is It That "Cash Ready" Means You Should Get An Incredible Deal?
“I need to inconvenience you as much as I possibly can, and I’m willing to give you 40% of what you’re asking for the pleasure of giving you a hard time!”
The Sheer Audacity Of Someone Who Stopped Associating With Our Friend Circle "To Pursue A Richer Life"
Does “mates” imply you give eah other cash? Is that part of the definition? I’ve known an awful lotta mates and never saw this in action, but then again, I’m not aware of how it works in *all* places where people use the term.
My Friend Was Trying To Give Away His Couch And Got This Lovely "Offer"
I paid one of those junk removal companies $50 to take away an old couch. $300 is nuts! This person is a scammer. A bold one!
Sounds Like Their Friend Didn’t Want To Give Them Their Netflix Password
Tl;dr: "You're My Friend/Partner So Give Me Money"
$2000 for a child's birthday party!! Some people have high expectations, way above the realms of reality. Pizza, ice cream , a cake and games at home does not cost $2000.

From OP: "UPDATE: She ended the voting round with a total of 0 points and didn’t making it through the first round of the actual beauty pageant 😃 The winner had just over 1800 votes last I checked. For everyone asking, this was during the summer. And the marriage thing was a joke between us, like “if we’re both still single by xx age we’re getting married”
This Is My Friend Who Started A Small T Shirt Business A Few Months Aho
My Friend Ran Into One In The Wild!
Not Me, But An Experience My Friend Had While Trying To Sell A Couch
Then go hassle the guy with the cheaper one. Someone who does this is not your “friend,” obviously, and who wants someone THIS stupid and cheap for a friend?

When Your Friend Blocks You Because You Didn’t Give Her Money After Your Mom Passed Away
What An Amazing Opportunity!
I would think this *might* get a few nibbles but ONLY if you pay for ALL the materials! Expecting the INSTALLERS who are working for FREE to foot part of the bill for YOUR roof, from which they’ll derive NO BENEFIT, is absolutely INSANE and cries out for a wellness check followed by hospitalization!
This Google Review For A Friendly Australian Skate Shop
Shay-lee is crazy, sure, but I'm also more than a little bit confused; _why_ did their website let her order them ??? That's on them.

“Good Friend” Wants Free Custom Sneakers
She not only was expecting the *service* for free, but also the sneakers, too? Who thinks doing this to a “friend” is the right thing to do? Man; the “friends” on this page are more like greasy enemies, and the people they’re trying to take advantage of don’t deserve this!
Facebook Friend On What/What Not To Buy Her For Birthday
For some reason, I suddenly really, REALLY need to know what her friends got her for her 21st birthday! I know that if I received a message like this, the poster wouldn’t get so much as a piece of taffy from me.

My Friend Encountered The Worst Cb Tonight When Trying To Find Homes For Puppies That Her Dog Had
My friend sent these to me in a panic tonight, she rescued a very pregnant husky a little while ago and now she’s adopting out the puppies. Her coworker gave her phone number out to this crazy CB without my friend’s permission. Coworker isn’t even friends with my friend, she took her number off the work schedule and gave it to CB.
Jesus *Christ* this thread is insane, this is barely anything, I'll post the link to the rest in the reply.

Bride Wants My Photographer Friend To Learn Another Photographer's "Style" And Basically Give Her A Discount For A Wedding That's In A Couple Of Weeks
From OP: "EDIT: (1 year later) - they made it to April and then they broke up. She was trying to become an influencer when she got stuck at home and she went on about how he wasn't a supportive husband (read: he wouldn't take photos of her). She never found a photographer for her wedding though, so her cousin did it and she was angry that the photos his family took from their iPhones were better than the ones her cousin did that she paid nothing for."
Did A Couple Of Free Album Designs For A Friend And Now An Entitled Beggar Things He Gets Them For Free Too Even Though I Don’t Know Him
I assume this means the CB isn’t paid for the work he does, either, likely because it’s so shoddy, not up to spec, and can’t pass any inspection that he assumes everyone else does, too. 😆
This Cb Apparently *needs* A New Skirt For A Party...but Can’t Afford It. Facebook Friends’ Wallets To The Rescue! After All, This Request Is Entirely Reasonable Considering They *could* Be Asking For A Lot More, Right?
As a thrift store textile processor, I can assure you, there are hella cute skirts at thrift stores at decent prices and no wait for delivery
Friend Is Trying To Sell Her iPhone On Gumtree
Photographer Friend Of Mine Got These Off A Hardcore Band Wanting A Shoot Done!
My ears hurt just imagining the lyrics these illiterate, cheap, and stupid “band members” write. I wish I could be in Manchester when the photographer runs a train on these baddies! 😀

Can her and the friend not take shifts between watching the kids and caring for the horses?

She seems not to have all her marbles. I would think a giant truck oughtta be the the LAST thing on her list of priorities.
