Should i say something about the money?

My boyfriend and I are young early 20s, and he just inherited a large sum of money. I didnt want to tell him what to do with the money because he was going to invest it all, and i think that is a great idea. However his mother started fighting with him to pay his sister's tuition. (keep in mind his mother and sister have been on 2 big trips this past year without even invited my boyfriend) He felt bad and has decided to give his sister the money. but now he is also going to pay for all his cousin's schooling aswell. leaving himself with not very much money and he will never see money like that again (he is in the military and gets paid very little). I like that he is helping his family but at the same time he just past up his chance of owning a house for a very long time. I'm wondering if i should talk to him of my worries of the money or just forget about it. I mean we can always get more money, and i dont want to start a fight with his family. but is it right to keep my mouth shut when i turly feel he is wasting his money?

Is It Normal?

  • I hope he made an agreement with them that they're going to pay him back afterwards because if not hes a dumb ass, no offense.

  • A friend once said to me, "Before you do someone a favour, ask yourself if they would do it for you."

    I doubt very much if his selfish sister and cousin would pay for his tuition. Whoever, left him the money wanted HIM to have it! Otherwise they'd have left it to his sister or cousin.

    He obviously has been rewarded coz he's such a sweet caring guy.

    Keep it for himself.

  • If you can tell it's bothering him, then I would offer some advice. But ultimately it's his decision.

  • I've been in his position, gave up the money, and often regret it. In retrospect, I'd offer to help to some extent, but I'd make sure my finances were secure first and I would keep at least some back for my own future.

  • Talk to him and tell him its not fair to give up his dreams and what he wants in life just to pay for his sister schooling. I would tell my mom if it was me. "fuck that its life tell them to get a job a pay for it" Buy a house be happy cause you may never get this much money again in your life!

  • Woah woah woah, why is he paying for his sister's and cousins schooling? They're grown ups now, they can get off their lazy asses and work in the real world like everyone else does for school.

  • Personally if i was him i would tell them to go fuck themselves go and talk to him about it because he might regret it later on.
