‘It’s not my fault you spent all your money': Woman refuses to lend brother money after he blew through his entire inheritance

Should money and family go hand in hand? The reality is, there isn't really a way around it. From the moment you are born, your parents have to financially support you, and as you grow up, money is always an issue that needs to be addressed. Even once you become a financially independent adult, somehow money always is a conversation at some point in family meetings.

So as much as I would love to say you shouldn't mix family with money, I know it is not the most realistic advice, and the woman who wrote this Reddit story would probably agree. After she and her brother got a big inheritance from their grandfather, she used it responsibly to pay off her mortgage and invest the rest, while her brother went on a wild spending spree and spent it all on vacations and a luxury sports car. Now the brother is broke and has come to his sister for a loan. But this isn't the first time OP has lent her brother money, and she won't do it again. Her brother obviously didn't take it well, and neither did their parents.
