Is it bad to ask for some thing then not use it when you have it ?

 

[Kakarot]

[kishtik]

It is bad because you are preventing the others who actually need it even if you buy it with your own money.

I think it depends.

I think it depends.

Well if some one, or even a group of people asks a favour, and the favour is

We seek insurance. We hope in most cases we don't have to use it.

We seek (some of us) guns for protection. I'd prefer NOT to shoot an intruder in my home.

The list goes on...

Perhaps because your ulterior motive is to prevent its current owner from using it.
