Ok so every week for over a year I've been giving my mom $125 a week. $75 for my car, $50 for rent. The other week I asked my mom how I'm going to get her the car money when I'm at school and she said as long as I'm a student I dont have to pay her for either. So I figured that started now. Apparently it starts when I actually -go- to school. So I tell her I dont have her money because I dont. So she starts lecturing me for like EVER and its SO ******** ANNOYING.
She starts yelling at me and telling me how irresponsible I am for only working 30 hours a week. She tells me EVERY other college student has 2 jobs and works at LEAST 50 hours a week. Alot of you sg'ers are in college. How many of you work 50 hours a week? I worked 50+ hours a week for 7 months and wanted to ******** die which is why I no longer do it. None of my friends work 50 hours a week but that was a bad, bad thing to bring up with my mom because then she goes on a rampage insulting my friends.
Its not even fair. My little brother has been 16 for 8 months now and doesnt have a job. My other little brother was almost 18 before he got his first job. On my 16th birthday my mom forced me to go job hunting, and I started working 1 week later and ever since then EVERYTHING between us is about money. From 16 -18 I gave her half my paycheck every week to pay for college. I only got like $70 a week and I had to give her $35 and gas was like $25 so that left me $10 after working all the time I wasnt in school. So I couldnt even hang out with friends after school because I was working or on weekends because I had NO money. And senior year I did NOTHING. You know all those special activities seniors get to do? I got to go to 1 out of like 10 because every other time I had to work.
And then when I went to college every time I talked to her she would tell me I needed more hours of work and needed to make more money. My little brother didnt work freshman year. He was in a frat and had to pay $100s of dollars in dues and he was in rowing and had to pay a ton of expenses for that too and my mom paid them all for him.
And then once I dropped out of school EVERY time I saw her it was "money money money D<" EVERY ******** TIME. And I had my own apartment and had to pay for the phone and internet and had to buy food and gas and she still expected me to give her money. And then when I moved back home it was even worse because it was EVERY DAY.
Its not even like she needs the money. She tells me almost every day now how her and my dad are in terrible financial trouble because I'm going back to school. I'm paying half the tuition first of all so they dont have to pay that much, and second its NOT my fault they're in trouble.
This fall my parents went to Egypt, Turkey, and Greece for two weeks. This winter they went for a week to florida and then my mom went for 4 days to Vegas. last month they went for two weeks to Italy and toured the whole country. They canceled our family vacation this year because they had no money. So instead of driving to florida, to our timeshare that we have to pay for whether we use it or not, and eating food from a grocery store because my mom refuses to eat out on vacations, and not going to any amusement parks or doing ANYTHING but hanging out in the resort unless we pay ourselves, my mom thinks she and my dad will get a nice hotel in the city and act like tourists for a week. Because thats not 5000x more expensive. AND its MY fault my mom has no money?
She pays hundreds of dollars so my little brother and her can be in a tennis club. She pays hundreds of dollars so we can be in a boat club that only her and my dad use. She pays hundreds of dollars so her and my dad can be in Mensa which doesnt even do anything but have like 2 dinners a year, and if you're in it it means you're smart.
And dont forget the fact that she has maids, lawn people, and pool people to pay for. Instead of making my little brother WHO HAS NO JOB work for his ******** allowance and gas money. No he got to come home right after school and sit on his a** playing video and computer games all school year.
Why does she need so much ******** money from me? And why does everything have to BE about money? She doesnt even need to give me money, she can just not take MINE. Its not like it even matter to her. She makes $200 an hour at her job. So what I'm giving her is like NOTHING to her. But its most of my paycheck.
I make around $210 a week. If I give my money $125 I'll have $85. To fill my tank costs $62 (this week). Even if I dont fill it I'll still need around $30 for it. And then my childhood best friend is getting married this summer in Florida and I really really want to go to her wedding. But how the ******** can I save money for it? Dont drive and dont go out EVER? And then not only do I need to give my mom $125 but I need to save for school. She lectured me for like 10 minutes about how I need to save money for school, and how loans wont cover it all and I need to work for the money and blah blah blah. And its like I have NO money to save for school because it all goes to YOU. Why cant she just let me use the $125 for school stuff? D:
Should I just not do ANYTHING this summer? Should I miss my friend's wedding? Should I not hang out AT ALL with my best friends all summer? There is NOTHING to do in this town that doesnt cost money. I already have to go 3 months living on the other side of the country and not be able to see them once in those 3 months. Hence why I'm not working 55 hours a week anymore, because I wanted to be able to do things with my friends before I leave them. But whatever, why not just stop hanging out with them now? Why not go 6 months without seeing my best friends? As long as my mom has her ******** money so she can get out of her HORRIBLE finacial burdens.
She bought a $2000 glass elephant in Italy last month. AND ITS MY FAULT SHE DOESNT HAVE MONEY. It's my fault she SO desperately needs more then half of MY pay check.
I could see paying for the car still. But the rent? $50 seems like NOTHING to her but its a LOT to me. But she doesnt care.
I'm going to go to work now. Then come home and do NOTHING because I cant afford to
