My sister texted me, "I wouldn't normally ask since I have too much pride to ask but do you know any places that I can get fast cash to earn. Im drowning. Can you save bottled and cans so I can do bottle drop"
And I am doing that for her at least. She has a 4 year old son, works at a job paying about $20/hr full time. Her fiance is working a blue collar job making around the same wage. They both live at her fiances parents place who are charging them both $700 each per month ($1400total rent per month). But they both are paying for two newish cars monthly (estimate average car payment). Shes in a couple of thousand in student loan debt. I suggested her to sell the two new cars and to get something cash that they can afford. She shut me out after I gave her that advice since all she wanted was bottle deposits and not a "lecture".
I dont know what to do from here. My parents wanted to send her some money but even my parents will be soon struggling to make their payments for their own house. I dont think giving money will help, its just enabling the problem. What do you think should be done as a family to help her?
