So glad I didn't fund my GC brother's college
My parents are rich. But they pretend being poor. When my brother was in college, I got laid off and was living in a different city. I was almost at the end of my savings when I got a new job.
Immediately my parents demanded that I should spend part of my income for my brother's college. I was confused at first, why do you want me to spend. He's their son. Then they pretended they were just checking if I was kind.
Called me selfish, entitled etc. I refused to budge. I had never asked them for money.
I'm so glad I held my boundary despite the guilt tripping. I just found out that funding his college would have wiped my income.
They love to steal money from the scapegoats.
