[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, the HHI would give a good idea of whether or not helping them is a reasonable request. Based on the fact you won't give the HHI, I'm going to assume it is sizable. If you are making under $100K, no, there's no way you can support them if you living in the DC metro. If, your household income is over $250K, then yes, you should be able to manage some sort of monthly allowance. Another suggestion would be for them to sell all of the current property they own and move to a condo where they would not need to do to outside maintenance and, depending on where you buy, it might be better for you and your husband to buy the condo and put it in your name. You could cover the HOA fees and they would essentially not have rent. Could they live on the social security benefits if they drastically cut their living expenses? There's too many unknown factors in what you've provided to be able to give any practical advice. While I get you think you shouldn't have to pay anything, I'm not sure this viewpoint is going to get you far in your relationship with your husband.[/quote] OP here - Should I buy them a palace and some butlers too? Maybe I should quit my job to wait on them hand and foot. Thanks for posting, but this is ridiculous.[/quote] You can buy an inexpensive condo depending on where it's located. Again, there's not enough info to provide helpful info. I'm going to have say that the more you respond the more obvious it is you are a bitter person with not much generosity of spirit. Good luck.[/quote] OP here - Ah, another lifelong mooch. The way you expertly allocated my income to all sorts of allowances for my in laws tells me you have practice at earmarking others' funds. No doubt you think the hardworking people of the world are just awful when we don't let your ilk reach into our pocketbooks.[/quote] And now I think OP is a troll.[/quote] OP here - Suuuure, I'm a troll because I gave you a stern rebuke. Bye now.[/quote] Different poster. Absolute troll. Can we please stop feeding?[/quote]
