Sibling asking for loan and his lifestyle choices are more expensive than mine
My brother asks me for loans occasionally. Ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. He sometimes returns me the money and overall, still borrows.
Recently, the total loan added up to about 5k and he is not very consistent with repaying.
Now, he is asking for 2k again. I’m getting of tired of chasing for the unreturned amounts. I feel like I’m begging for my money, so I stopped. I will probably have to write off.
I’m not inclined to lend him this time. But I’m pissed that my mum feels I should help him since it’s not a big amount (“It’s just 2k”).
Hello! I have already lent him $$ and he makes a lot more expensive choices than me. Branded wallet, bag, watch, clothes, more frequent grab rides, holidays and cafes/restaurants than me.
Am I suppose to support his lifestyle choices? I have my goals too. I’m saving up for my own wedding and renovation. However, when his wedding is near, I’m sure he will ask my mum for a loan.
