supporting siblings...
    #10894010 -

what are your thoughts on this?

in my case, this isn't happening, but it's expected of me to support my older brother in the future... it's just him and me and our parents. he's married, with his first baby, and is gonna have 20 more cuz he's a religious nut. his career prospects and skills are low, so things are, will will be more so, very difficult for him. my parents are in a tight financial situation, but are ok. they just bought a house, and one for my bro. they're currently 100K in debt. i'm living with my parents and not making money. i'm 20 though, and already graduated from a top university, and if i set my mind on making a good living or business, i'll most likely succeed. if i end up making a good amount of money, my family is expecting me to support my brother. now, on one hand, i love him and would feel like a dick if i had enough money to support him and let him struggle, but at the same time, i feel strong resentment toward the idea of me supporting him.

gotta help family
but help doesn't have to be anything more than enough ramen packets for him, the wife, and the kids.
a place out of the rain.
and some gunny sacks for the kids to wear.

Sorry man, that sounds like a fucked up family.  They should be expecting your older brother to pull his own damn weight.  If he doesn't, that's your parents problem, not yours.

Move.  Visit at holidays if they're civil.

and sell the kids
keep the wife though, cause you can sell her over and over again.

Listen to this man, his advice is solid.

Only help siblings if they are willing to help themselves.

If you give them room and board, make it miserable for them so they wanna leave.

Set a level of expectations.
