[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP sounds like a nightmare and suddenly posting several defensive replies when called out. Op is so so rich, with multiple fancy homes, and doesn’t mind not having to do squat in maintenance of the house. But GDI if the uncle and his wife spend an extra month there or if some insurance agent thinks it’s only owned by the uncle (WTF with that irrelevant story). What does any of that have to do with pottery barn furniture?

Your own self importance is awful. [/quote]

Your inability to read and comprehend what OP wrote is awful.  She said multiple times that her DH offered to take on the maintenance aspects.  No idea why you think she's being self important, what a weird take.  She's probably frustrated because in typical DCUM fashion nobody seems to want to pay attention to the details and would rather just harp on the OPs.[/quote]

14:06 and 14:08, thanks for your comments.

We do not have endless money and what we have is not for someone else to decide how to spend. We have one child who will probably need financial supports for their entire life. I have one sibling who requires support. We covered my parents' expenses for their final years. We may have to provide some support for DH's parents. Yes, we have a second home, not luxurious, but allows us to get away. We are grateful for it.

I'm not sure how the financial misrepresentation by the uncle is irrelevant. If you co-owned property, only to learn later that the other owner took out an insurance policy on the property in their name only, I can't imagine you would be chill about that. Given that the uncle asks for 50/50, why didn't he ask my ILs for that for the policy? My MiL had never seen it and knew nothing about it. Clearly the agent thought something was fishy or he wouldn't have raised it with her.

Look, I grew up in a family where the focus was very much on fairness and equity, so this behavior may floor me more than others, but this doesn't seem normal to me. I would never treat my siblings or elders this way. My parents may not have had much but they raised us to be rational and generous. I don't see what the uncle, wife, and cousins do is even remotely in that spirit. [/quote]

This is just way too much personal info.[/quote]

that my parents raised kind, rational children?[/quote]

DCUM doesn’t need to know your biography in excruciating detail. You obviously think you’re in the right and are being scammed so I’m not sure what’s the point of this thread if you’re going to keep arguing and posting about random extended family details that don’t have anything to do with this beach house. You just want people to post “poor you” and be in agreement with you. Why are you even here?[/quote]
