how do you deal with mooching relatives?
do you feel sorry for them and help them out? or do you refuse to tolerate it at all? |

IF they do it ALL of the time, I DO NOT help them. They need to learn money management!

I don't mind helping anyone but if they don't try to help themselves along the way then I will back off and away from them....

I've done this with my sister. But mine is a little different. I co-signed for her to get a loan. Now, I don't want to look at my credit score. Thankfully she's making her payments now.

it helps when you have nothing for them to mooch.

I got lucky. I cut most out before I landed on my career path, and for good reasons.
