I have been in a hard way multiple times, and I have never asked anyone for money except a close friend. My family offers, but I know they need the money more than I do.

My family generally does the same with me, my mom sometimes comes to me for financial advice and to ask to borrow money, I think the last time was 200, she doesn’t pay me back but I don’t really mind, half the time I forget.

I recently offered to give 2k to help my brother buy a car, nothing game of it.

I’ve just always understood that my earning potential was the highest and that I was always going to be put into the position of responsibility for those around me. Now, that’s just materialized as my earning has caught up with my potential now that age isn’t really a detriment.

I wouldn’t call myself generous with money, I grew up to a tune of maybe 200 dollars a year, I’m not out here buying anyone lavish gifts. But I don’t really care for materialistic things, so I buy them for people because I know they’ll enjoy it more than me.
