Wikpedia has an entry for this expression.
The expression "pay it forward" is used to describe the concept of asking that a good deed be repaid by having it done for others instead. (Wikipedia)
Is there a good Spanish expression to convey this idea?
(Short of giving an explanation, like, "no me lo devuelvas a mí, hazle el mismo favor a alguien que lo necesite..." "devolver el favor haciéndoselo a otro")
Any shorter way to say it in Spanish?
I will pay forward your assistance, helping someone else...
Devolveré tu/vuestra/su ayuda, ayudando a alguien más...
