<prompt> Human: Little backstory: friend was wanting to establish a car business repairing, trading, etc and somehow it all went wrong and he lost a lot of money.I lent him 35k in hopes of receiving some exclusive profiting, but it didnt work out.Now hes not able to pay back the money. Before all of this we wrote a note, stating I lent him 35k, he states that hes legally and morally responsible of paying me back and there is no interest just the equal amount return in this case.We are going to the bank to write a notary tomorrow so I need some advice on what step to take next and how to collect the money back ASAP.Im basically broke too now and I need some guidance...  <response>: if hes a good friend who is trying to pay you back then he will get a job and you can put him on a payment plan. probably your best option for truly getting the money.if you dont already know this that was a profoundly stupid thing to do and your chances of actually seeing a dime are very slim so proceed as if youre never getting paid back.
