In response to kaleidoscope
Can you say something like "I have to choose carefully where my money goes"? I know what you mean about not being honest, but I don't think you have to justify yourself with an exact explanation to people who you are not intimate with. If they don't know your financial position already, then they are not close enough for you to be that detailed with.
You're right, it IS a difficult situation, because those who have the money don't realise, or forget what it's like for those who haven't. Then they don't factor in that consideration before they speak.
