[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Help her. Why not. If you can afford it. She is your sister not a stranger. One day you might need help,, not money but what if your husband dies and you are left alone and everyone else will be old and dead and she will be all you have. That little money will be between you two and then it will so not matter.

Why money is everything. Isn't it you guys make it to do good with it? This is your chance to help her children to get ahead in life and one day maybe they will help you .. or not but still. So many people here give to charity to strangers but when a family could be helped the same people raise hell.  :roll: [/quote]

Thing could change for you OP. Tables turn. Keep your family a priority.   My sister became estranged after a money grab from our parents estate. She is very lonely now. Money is not #1.[/quote]

The sister has four kids, that’s a big commitment for private school and fancy vacations. I would consider myself well off, but funding five private educations is a large amount of money. What if she pays this and then this living on the edge family has a real crisis (health or can’t pay mortgage)? If it were me I’d be too overextended at that point to help. [/quote]
