SPENDING MONEY ON A WEDDING – IM GOING NUTS!!!
Long story short. I have an older brother. We live at home with our mom.
Brother decides to propose last year and plan his wedding for this year.
Brother starts booking a bunch of places for his wedding days (brown wedding) and organizing everything.
My mom who accelerated her mortgage payments feels the need to pay for renos to the house and help my brother out with expenses.
Mom takes a loan on LOC to pay for backyard ~10k CAD. Thank god her mortgage has been paid for now.
Mom loses her job recently so I had to pay off her outstanding credit cards/get her financials back on track with my emergency fund.
Older brother seems to not give a f*ck about moms well-being/financials.
Mom thinks it's her duty to continue going in debt to assist him in funding this wedding.
New chairs, concrete in the backyard, concrete walkway to the backyard, new garage door, new paint for walls, landscaping, flowers, trees, all to make them look better for the family coming over!!!
IM GOING INSANE. ALL OF THIS RECKLESS SPENDING FOR 4 WEDDING DAY EVENTS!!!
AM I CRAZY TO BE F**KING PISSED AT WHATS HAPPENING?
DAILY ARGUMENTS BETWEEN MY MOM AND I ON PLUMMETING FINANCIALS!!!
My emergency fund is gone till my moms finances get back on track and my brother does not give af!
He does not care where the money comes from or what trouble people are going through to make his day special!
AM I NUTS???
