It's not that I think the guy is up to no good, and I don't mind passing conversations with neighbors, but what person asks if they will pick them up and chauffeur them the second time they meet, to borrow money the next time, etc. I just don't want this guy around and my GF is extra creeped out by the guy, the last time he was at door was while I was out showing property. Trust me I have no issues being a dick and telling off people, it's just I think this guy doesn't know any better and I'm not sure if he just has a speech impediment or its some mental handicap on top of that, so trying to be nice about it if possible. I was just taking a chance someone had a creative a more tactful way to get rid of him. I'll try answering the door naked and see how that works like Pstall suggested.

Actually, I was thinking if I flip the script and tell him I was audited and owe tons of money and start asking him to borrow money every time I see him. No joke, if he shows up at my door, I'll come to door all upset and ask him to borrow $20. I'll even post the video from my front door camera here.

Act like you need help killing someone and show him the shovel and limestone in the trunk.

Actually as much fun as y'all made, the point came through, do something to make him feel uncomfortable, 3 days ago when I saw him, I pretend to be kinda upset and told him I wasn't doing good, the IRS said some of my write offs weren't legal and said I still owed another $58k and cleaned out my bank account. Then I proceeded to ask him to borrow $130 till Friday to pay off my credit card bill. He looked stunned. He made the worst excuse and said something about they haven't paid him his check and he needs to buy some book.

Now that it got a little awkward, I them asked him for $20 to buy a bad of dog food for Bentley. He said he was going to check if he had it a home and let me know. Well yesterday he was in my neighborhood leaving flyers from the hot dog restaurant door to door and was like 3 doors down when I came back from walking my dog, so he definitely saw me go in. He left a flyer at front door and kept going! Mission accomplished! I did feel a little guilty lying to the guy, but at the end of the day, it was to avoid being blunt with him which would have probably hurt his feelings.
