[quote=Anonymous]Stay out of it. I get that it’s maddening to watch. I’m four years older than my sister. She has no kids, so she does have more freedom to spend than I do. But she has accrued debt and court judgments against her, a very small emergency cushion, under 10k in retirement savings. She quits jobs if she can’t get the time off that she wants, has earned three parent-funded masters degrees, dropped health insurance bc it was cutting into her travel budget, etc.... My parents are each tight-lipped about estate planning, and I just cross my fingers that they set up trusts. I’m not going to be an enabler and I don’t have enough money to bail her out even if I were so inclined. I’m widowed with two kids and I’m busting my ass to save for retirement and college. tl;dr you’re not alone and there’s nothing you can (or should) do but accept the situation [/quote]
