[quote=Anonymous]I feel you, OP. We also have childcare expenses and elderly parents. In your place, I would take a hard look and my income/expenses, re-evaluate my priorities, and budget in that $100/month. $200k is not much money, and you really do not want to be tapping it until necessary. Use your tax return (if you have any), minimize eating out, make use of free activities for your kids, etc, but make it happen. And, it's totally fair for you to ask your brother to keep your mom's extraneous expenses to a minimum, too. [/quote]
