[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would have a one-time conversation with them that includes an offer to connect them with (pay for) financial advisor who can help them create a budget. If they reject the offer I'd drop it.[/quote] This is the best advice. Has DD always been bad with money or is this new?[/quote] This is the result of a childhood filled of instagram and being brainwashed into "having" to live a certain lifestyle right away! It's particularly a problem in this area, bc many are so wealthy and come from family money. There will come a time for it (or maybe not) at all, but there is nothing wrong with gently emphasizing patience and good spending habits. Or it may be entirely possible, as others said, that his family is helping them financially. [/quote]
