Normally my Dad transfers my rent money from my account to his. I rarely go to the bank, and its a 15 minute drive. Everything is computerized now, so my seasonal job is the only one that pays per cheque.
My Dad usually tells me when he is transferrring it, and he said something the other day. well he didn;t because my Mom keeps wanting cash to pay my brother for his gas, food, and waste on anything and everything.
Now not once have I paid cash, and I explained I have a limit on my account of $100.00 withdrawl each day. So to pay my rent I would have to go several times to keep withdrawing $100 each time.
I'm not wasting my gas to make any of them happy, they can transfer the money and go to the bank and get the cash. She then carries on how I can buy them all groceries instead I told her my credit card is at the max after the dentist visit and I don't get paid for at least a week, or even enough to get it low enough until next month. I have the rent money sitting in my account to be transferred, once it's transferred do what you want. I'm not getting into this you buy this, and take this off because I know I'll end up being screwed over I just want them to take the dam money and do what they want end of story.
She goes well we need groceries you can buy them, I said again my credit card wont hold it until I get paid. She carried on how I have a debit card, which one I have a limit at the machine, and at stores of $100.00 end of story (not both just one $100.00 a day max anywhere) if it's over that amount it will lock my account. I figure she wants cash from me and my sister because they charged up their credit cards and cant afford anything as they just paid about 10,000$ in crap for my brothers schooling which they couldn't afford to begin with.
I told them to take the cash from my account and transfer it. Unless they want to go to the bank explain to the teller they are screwing the government and not claiming they are collecting rent from me to get the cash, and me pay them.

That is right, if they really need the cash so badly, all they have to do is go to the bank and ask for it. Some people just don't live their life with a clear head, the banks have so much of our cash and make plenty of $$ out of our deposit,credit and debit card, personal cheque and loan etc.. go over to the bank, and your problem is solved, it is a non brainer.

You need out, end of story. She's badgering you, trying to get you to do something clearly you don't want to, and don't have to do. They should have not paid so much for your brother, make him get a job. I know that they don't so much because of his bowel problems, but you have them too and you don't cry over them, heck you work so many jobs, hardly ever home but you manage..

I am looking for another job, and putting every penny away. They think I owe them everything any anything, each day just gets worse. They threw out a box of items I was trying to sell (perfectly good items). They are so negative too, I avoid them at all costs anything you say and do they have something to say about it and kick you basically. I just find it funny that they put themselves into debt and now expect us to hand them money. My sister might but I will not, it took me awhile to put away this large amount of money and I wont hand it over to someone who doesnt appreciate it.

They seem to make simple things hard. It is time to leave. I hope you get a good job soon and can do so.

So are you saying not only are they broke and wanting you to bail them out? But they should be claiming your rent as income and of course do not report it and therefore avoiding some sort of income tax?

What a story, what a life, it would make me run (which I did as I was 15 years old still happy I did after all these years).
Big compliment for you that you do NOT give in! Guard your credit card, bank card, money so you won't get in trouble because of the begging or threatening of your mother. I keep wondering why she keeps spending all these stuff on your brother. How come she is not able to mange money and you can?
Stay strong and fight for yourself since nobody does that is clear to me. All blessings for you!

I don't mind helping people out, or lending money but when they treat me like crap. My Mother has never had big responsibility, she was and still is in debt, the only person who keeps her a float is my father he has paid off thousands of her debt, and I;m sure will continue. My brother clearly is incapable of doing anything himself, whereas the rest of us have been supporting ourselves since we were at least 16 (paying bills, rent, etc) just not him, she has every excuse for him which is about 50% of her debt.

Sorry I'm a bit late on this one.. I see it is 3 months old and I'm sure you've solved the problem by now. I think you should just move out though. Sounds like you're spending a lot on your family when that money should be just yours. Maybe you could look in the paper for a room to rent or someone who wants a roommate.
