I worked hard, paid off debt, and banked millions but now my family keeps asking me for money - what can I do?
Briefly

"Many people imagine that all of their problems will go away once they reach a certain net worth. But, based on my experience, reaching a higher net worth often brings along problems of its own!"
"Success in family circles can, unfortunately, attract entitlement. People generally only see the outside of success, not all of the hard work behind the scenes."
"Whenever family tensions arise (whether it has to do with money or not), I recommend setting strict boundaries ASAP. The other party rarely likes it when you set boundaries, but they don’t have to!"
"If you have financial knowledge that helps your family, offer that instead of financial support. It builds their skills without fostering reliance on you."
