- Me neither/Me either.

Is there any rule for positive and negative sentences? Or I can use both, 'me neither' and 'me either' when a sentence is negative as the one above?

I think either may be uttered under all such circumstances.

But I cannot use 'em when a sentence is positive, can I? As in: - I've got money. - Me either.

One grammatically correct response to this would be Neither can I, though many people say Me neither.

You should answer "Neither can I" or "Nor can I". You could also say "I can't either". But I do not like "me either". Avoid using it.

You said that 'me either' wasn't grammatically correct phrase (is backshifting correct in this case??) so why do you use it?
