Woman Refuses to Fund Irresponsible Cousin's Second Attempt at College, Family Labels Her 'Selfish' for Not Giving in to Entitlement

Welcome, gossiping gals of the internet. It is absolutely mind-blowing how often people feel that they are entitled to the success of others - especially friends and family. It is not uncommon that when one family member 'makes it' through their hard work, effort and sacrifice, that other family members come flocking to them for handouts. While it is good and wholesome to commit to the occasional act of charity when someone you love is truly in a pickle, giving in to every whim can eventually drain you dry. Plus, there is a difference between helping a family member with medical bills versus paying for their entire luxurious wedding just because you could technically afford it.

In our story today, a young woman is expected to give her irresponsible cousin what is left of her college fund. Our protagonist still has money leftover because she earned a scholarship for her last year of university. Thus, according to her relatives, there is still money 'just sitting there.'  Our protagonist refuses to give into the entitlement as she has her own plans for the money that she deserves to keep. Get the full story below.
