[quote=Anonymous]It's the putting it on the credit card thing that's making me nervous. If spending this money meant you'd have to skip one of your many family trips this year or something, I'd say that of course you should do it. But it really sounds untenable. I'd probably offer to pay for the parents but no one else. SIL really does need to reconsider the location if no one can afford to come. Once we became fairly affluent, we began gifting things like trips and cell phones to DH's LMC family members. Once we got a big bonus and we sent BIL a check just to spread the joy. But these things have always been initiated by us. I'd rather help out my family than have a nice handbag or go on a 7th grip of the year, you know? But if you don't have this money lying around, you're just robbing Peter to pay Paul. [/quote]
