Father and step-mom ask 20-year-old son to give $50k to teenage step-brother: 'They tried adding pressure for me to change my mind'

Imagine how startled you'd be if someone asked you to just suddenly give them thousands of dollars. It's bad enough when you have that one friend who always needs to borrow $20. This person is dealing with something more extreme: his own family wants him to give 5 figures to his step-sibling! 

That old saying goes that you shouldn't lend out money to friends or family in the hopes of getting it back. Instead, you should only give out "gifts" when doling out money. That prevents hard feelings from developing. Money matters can and do tear families apart. 

This person is living the dream, financially: he got a nice inheritance from his grandparents at age 18. Although that is awfully young to be in charge of such a large fortune, having a big nest egg is the key to having the exact future you want for yourself. 

Up next, read some unforgettably bad job interview stories, like one person who 'Interviewed someone who... technically wasn't allowed to be in the building.'
