[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I struggle with is being expected to enable elderly people who have means but are unwilling to spend any money. My dad is extremely cheap and will not pay for a taxi or an uber to take him to the airport. So every time he goes it turns into this big crisis of how he will get there. An Uber is $50 round trip. I’m not taking time off work or losing sleep to help my dad save $50 when he has plenty of money. [/quote] OP here. I totally relate. Years ago I did so many things to enable my mom to remain cheap and needy. She had endless money to spend to donate to charities to get her name on things and here I was doing menial tasks during my little bit of free time which she could have hired someone for.[/quote]
