WRONG!

I have a younger brother who is still at university. I work. I give him money even though he never asks for it. The boy is studying and has a part-time job. He has a 50-60 hours week. He works hard because he is too proud to ask anyone for money. He does not feel that I owe him or anyone else. This is why it is my pleasure to support him. Once he takes it for granted, it is over.

I also take care of my grandparents. Yet, they do not say I have to. They would give me anything if I asked even if they don't have much.

This is how it is in my family. We are proud to give, nobody feels entitled to take. It has helped us to have more than enough as a family.
This is the secret of us never having financial problems.

dat's tyt. indeed cool.

a frnd of mine said....1ces he graduate, he will go straight into favour market and not labour market.

carefreewannabe:
Maybe because he or she has lazy siblings and knows it. Maybe because he needs the money for something else. Maybe because he or she knows that his siblings waste money. It does not matter, it is his / her choice. He does not even need to justify his not wanting to give. Simples.

carefree, you are indeed carefree.....lol, u aint caring.

moca:
Interesting debate.

Efe, where went thou?
Hope all is well?

@op, d day u start thinking"I owe nobody no obligation and nobody owe me any", u become a free man.

U only owe that to ur immediate family.
Kids to a certain level, they r on their own.

I came from a super wealthy background and even as a young gal stopped licking nyash at a level and worked hard to be where I am today.
Of course u will be persecuted on premises like"lets see how she will make it, no be ashe work she go begin do,bla bla bla but that was d best decision of my life that exposed me to who and what I am today.

Wait for nobody, even those ur daddy trained. They owe u nothing. Work hard and make ur mark.

I own dat to My immediate family ryt?? u said yes.....lol, some psons up there said.....o.y.o. mind your business. isn't that witchcraft? a broda is sick, u chase im away. ur nephews n nieces aren't even in school.....none of your business. u see, that's not My concern though. but at tyms, these set of pple, will give special importance to issues not pertaining to that of their brothers. friends go de praise them outside....dats d conundrum in all of it. some persons made some points, and I quiet agree with them.

mcdokwe:
from what I have observed, I have seen reasons why it is so easy for one to be like that. You find that those relatives are the closest in ones turbulent days, but more often than not fail to give a helping hand but rather watch and gossip if the individual can amount to any good, competing with him/her and all that. So it is very easy for one to drift away when one finally makes it

ya......so true. but we avent looked at it frm one end of the continuum. someone 1ces asked. " y wud de wana give wen de knw d pain they went through b4 amassin deir wealth." I am no fan to this quote...." for SOME wealthy enterprise around, there is crime involved." but mayb dere is an iota of truth in it. lyk I said up dere, in movies, d conclusion of d mata is usually.....mayb d wealth of d rich isn't genuine. gotten through evil and crime. Perhaps, d reason y sum of em r Stingy.

EfemenaXY:
Shouldn't the entitlement driven brother channel all his energy towards making it "big" himself, rather than size up whom his sibling chooses to assist?

What if the one whose already made it sees his demanding brother as one who only wants to party away like there's no tomorrow? And lives by the philosophy easy-come-easy-go?

While he sees the non-relative as a serious, down-to-earth entrepreneur with solid business ideas and good prospects?

You saying he should throw his money at the brother simply because they're related??

dats it.....dats 1 point.....nw u copy.

carefreewannabe:
Whatever money I make, it is MY money! I worked for it. If I choose to share it, then because I want to and not because I have to.
And people with your attitude will NOT get ANYTHING from me. Same for lazy people who expect to take from those who work hard.

You have NO right to demand anything from anyone. You want money, go and find job.

@ carefree, I object to d remark you made about My attitude. you missed the point.

carefreewannabe:
Why is a brother entitled to his brother's wealth?

dats nt Ma point. My point is....I sense something sinister about it....y wud a pson wud'nt want to assist his own blood brother but wud willingly assist anoda( friend)

Hahaha.....dem 1 chop me o....u guys should pls take a closer look at what I wrote...if your own brother Or sister, Same Papa Same mama....dat Was what I meant by immediate family members....if d pson make am and you de in need make him nor help you out I think d picture is clearer nw....and forget about all these entitlement you'av been hammering On.

it isn't about whether Or not they are entitled to d wealth accumulated by a brother, even if it is....I say yes o. dix is often a problem when a wealthy man dies and d wife n kids wud want to keep back all of their fathers possesions. m observing jux an exact situation. as it stands, neither d wife n children nor the extended family are at rest.

EfemenaXY:
This is a common problem with most Nigerians. Their "entitlement" mentality making them belie the whole world owes them a big favour. So much that there's a fine, albeit an almost non-existent line between them begging for help and demanding that "help" be rendered to them because they so deem it.

Refusal to acquiesce results in them almost swearing for you with trashy words like: Just pray you don't find yourself in a similar or worse situation as mine...

Mtcheew.

Sori to say bro......u ain't communicating.....clarify your point.

op, e b like say na u b their accountant.

carefreewannabe:
Are they obliged to meet people's expectations?

yes. even if they don't give back to d society frm Which de emanated frm, one should xpet de help out their brothers and sisters....relatives when in need. but we don't see dat happening, at tyms.

sum pple de cry oo....wen expectations has been cut short.....oh I love this quote.....EXPECT THE WORST AND YOU WILL NEVER BE DISAPPOINTED.

often depicted in movies, wealthy people failing to meet up to expectations even among immediate members. in reacting to it, one may feel it is'nt as extreme as it is portrayed, but look around and you will find out it is the obvious reality. why? some people may only attribute that behavior as an act of wickedness but I feel there is more to it than what is observed. they are tightfisted when it comes to offering financial assistance to relatives.....I mean immediate and not distant relatives so to say, but the irony of it is, they see the needs of their friends as priority. they are Very comfortable purchasing alcohol for relatives that is the most they do, to go drink and die. they don't give fish to family members, talk more of teaching them how to fish.....strange.

if u hear d amount of naira wen all dix politicians de announce 4 radio....heart go de cut you.

but rili, dox legs Ah no.....d legs alone pass 6feets.
