[quote=Anonymous]My brother & I are also at opposite ends of the financial spectrum, partly out of dumb luck (he had a horrible accident that makes it impossible for him to work in any meaningful way) and partly out of decisions. My parents have given him a huge amount of help to keep him afloat (down payments, monthly allowances, phone, insurance, etc). They offered to give me the same, but I've asked them instead to set up a trust to help my brother after they pass so that I will not need to step into their shoes. After that, if they still had $, I suggested that they set up a fund for all of their grandkids. I appreciated the desire to keep it even, but we really don't need it. If my parents had never mentioned the offer, there is no way I would have asked them about it beyond making sure they werent bankrupting themselves to care for my brother.[/quote]
