My parents have given my sister a sum of money to help her and her partner out of a sticky situation. They want to move but have neg equity to the sum of around 20grand, deposit will covered by parents, legal fees and stamp duty on cc. I was fine with this, their money, totally happy for them to help out.
Parents have now decided it may aswell be inheritance, you need it now, it will be yours eventually anyway etc. However, my part has been given to my sister and she will pay me back when she is in a position to. This maybe a couple of years and likely to be in monthly instalments. So technically she is now in debt to me. Financially they are not in a great position so im not holding my breath.
Im abit cross as we were in a similar situation a few years ago and had no help. We worked so hard to save to allow us to move to a slightly bigger house. Im frustrated they have been given this opportunity to buy a substantial abode. This is not helped by the fact my brother was bought his house outright by his father (different dads). I sort of feel like im always left limping behind my siblings. My sis will keep her brand new car and her tennis club membership alongside her son going to nursery when not required.
I feel hard done to that my half has been lent out, and ill have to have it in installments if at all. I also feel like it is going to cause ww3. The worst part is i feel dirty inside for being cross and jealous about money- please somebody slap me and tell me to get a grip... or share encouraging stories how this is completely normal behaviour because i think its crazy! I hate myself for being mad about this as its their money- i wish they'd never bloody mentioned this crazy arrangement! AIBU...
