[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, my siblings and I have BTDT. We paid her rent for almost 2 years. The thanks we got? She said if any of us had real jobs, we would be able to give her the lifestyle she deserves. There was no end to what she thought she deserved. We finally cut her off.

If I were in your shoes, I would let her file for bankruptcy. If you give her money, would it mess up her financial records for purposes of the bankruptcy? [/quote]

Wow, that sounds awful. Were you and your siblings all on the same page? What did she think she deserved? Did she have a "real" job?[/quote]

No, she’s never had a job for more than a few weeks in her life. I was the only one speaking to her at the time, but we did all agree to share the cost, mostly for one another. I think it was my sister who felt the most responsible, so we all paid it.

This whole entitlement thing is her schtick. She’s been demanding my sister give her a kidney lately. That’s a story for another thread. [/quote]
