So I was laid off in January and still havent found a job. FI is working full time at Starbucks while going to nursing school full time... I feel so bad about this but litteraly mc donalds isnt even hiring in my area so back tracking to last June with both of us having stable jobs me working for the school system and FI being employed by Starbucks for 3 years we decided we would start looking for condos and found a great deal on one that was a foreclouare for 56,000 3 bedroom 2 bath 1300 sqft and a little yard so we talked to my grandfather who has like millions and asked if he could help us pay for it ( I have stock market money and wanted to use some of this im not looking for handout I wanted my money) and he said that he didnt want to give it to me but he took a loan out on his house bc i later learned that he got a tax credit for doing so... super selfish so he wanted the "loan" paid back in 5 years so we are stuck paying 1500 a month and we couldnt afford it on our own so we got roomates our first two were druggies who worked with FI and we kicked them out after 4 months of my house smelling like pot then we decided that my mom and brother could move in with us since my dad had to move to Tampa for "work" ill get to this later... so we think this will be our best bet I mean its my MOM!! so my dad is only giving us 800 a month with no help with utilites or anything... this is for 2 rooms btw my brother is a hoodlum i have never met a jewisjh boy from a well to do family who thinks he was raised in compton! he broke into my room with friends and stole alchohal and money from me while we were on vacation a few weeks ago with FIs family he is abusive to everyone and i just dont know what to do ! I got my electric bill for the month and its $242 how does that even happen.... thanks for letting me vent

any advice be it positive or negative! 

I am so sorry you're going through this. Sometimes family will treat you worse than a friend will, or sometimes it feels like it's worse because you expected better from them. Keep your head up and I know you will find something soon. Have you considered some work online or over the phone. I know a lot of companies are looking for someone to work out of their home for customer service. I work at a bank and our entire customer service team works from their home.

I thought that was all a scam or whatever... my grandfather wont even let us pay him what we can now and pay him the rest when we get our real careers I dont understand it . Its not like im a stranger!

My grandfather is like that too, and I think its because of the depression. They are like packrats, buying things they dont need and then holding onto them and not letting anyone have them because their scared they may need it one day and wont have it when they do. You may have to go around your grandfather or get someone closer to him to ask him in your favor. Maybe if you get something in writing and notarized saying you will pay him this much by this time he may feel more inclined, but he could be scared to be burned because like I said before, family can burn you much worse than a stranger.

My grandfather wasnt alive during the depression lol but its just so weird! and I have a sinking feeling that he will screw us over and not sign the house over to us

Well if he gets that nasty about it, I would get a lawyer involved. Just for advice and see what your options are. Why would he be so mean?

Thats just him honestly there have been so many problems with my dads side of the family they are a white trash night mare you now the saying money cant buy you class 

I know what you mean. MY FI's family is pretty class-less too, but they dont have any money...so even if they could afford to be classy, chances are they wouldnt be lol.

Thanks for the advice and my brother seriously thinks hes a gangstar...

maybe you need to enroll him in a scared straight program...drop him off in the hood, see how he does lol

chrisitie there is a huge back story there so me calling him selfish is tame but thanks for your concern!
