Aaron, would you have done what Mike did? I doubt that you would've. You have to use better judgement when it comes to financial issues. I would've been a lot more sympathetic, if Mike had done this for a close friend or relative, and in turn, the relative screwed him over. If a co-worker came up to me and asked me to cash his checks, I'd politely say, "No, I can't." and move on. It doesn't make me a bad person nor someone who doesn't believe in helping people out. I do it all the time. But again, people also suck sometimes and it's better to be safe than sorry. That's just my opinion.
If it's "just your opinion" then isn't it extreme to call someone else stupid for having the opposite opinion. Doesn't it, in fact, sort of make you a bad person?
To answer your question, I might have done what Mike did. It would depend on the situation.
