‘This would not only violate the terms of a 55+ community HOA, but is also a very delusional’: 42-year-old woman pushes her mother-in-law to purchase a Florida retirement home in her name for her to rent, then stops speaking to her after being told no

This sister-in-law, forty-two and committed to an expensive lifestyle, decided the best way to get closer to her mother-in-law was to engage in a little light fraud. The concept was simple in its own ridiculous way. Have the mother-in-law buy a house in a Florida 55 plus community under her own name so that sister in law and the brother could live there and just pay rent.  

There is entitlement, there is audacity, and then there is the kind of full-contact delusion that treats rules and laws like mild seasoning, something optional and meant for other people.

This is a community that guards its age requirement like a sacred relic and a plan that assumes all the financial and legal risk should sit neatly on someone else's shoulders. The request was not about practicality or fairness. It was about skipping entire decades of patience, saving, and eligibility in order to jump straight into early retirement fantasy living paid for through the credibility of someone who actually qualifies.

  • Entitled Sister-In-Law wants my Mother to fraudulently buy her a House in a 55+ Community

  • The mother refused outright, as any sane person would. That refusal was met with the time tested reaction of the entitled, an instant withdrawal from contact and a sudden inability to attend family gatherings. The brother now arrives to events alone, presumably leaving the Florida dreamer to sulk in place.  

    If this really is the unraveling of the marriage, the rest of the family appears ready to see it through to the end, rooting for the home team of common sense over the away team of fraudulent beachfront living.

  • So my Sister in Law (42F) has been married to my Brother (39M) for about a decade now.

  • Since then she's increasingly become a pariah in our family where she shows increasingly blatant disinterest in the rest of the family.
    via Nevets52
  • Not to mention their marriage has become increasingly strained as she has an expensive lifestyle with my brother being the primary income source for them.

  • A few weeks back she asks my mother if she could buy a house in a 55+ community in Florida under my moms name and her and my brother would pay rent on it (note that my SIL is only 42).

  • This would not only would violate the terms of the 55+ community HOA, but is also a very delusional interpretation of what my mother can afford.
