You are the oldest child. Your parents give everything to you. Your parents took all their saving money to send you to good college. No money left for other siblings--the other siblings don't want to go to expensive college anyway.

Your grand mother spent all her money to support you to college too. She has 18 other grand children, but they don't get the money.

I am talking about over $100,000.

Thank you.

  1. I would feel spoiled, and I wouldn't want that... just because i was born first doesn't mean I should get more than everyone else. I would refuse the money.


  2. i would almost feel guilty for getting so much compared to everyone else in my family. I think i would sit everyone down and just talk to them and say as much as you appreciate what they are doing for you there are also other people in the family that need help and it isnt fair to them...

    hope this helps!

  3. guess what my mom and the rest of my family spoiled me like that for most of my life. it made it really hard to live on my own. it gave me a terrible attitude and my fiance and i are having problems because of that. trust me, it's not good. now i'm a high school drop out, gonna get my ged in september and go to beauty school. my mom is paying for me to get my ged and go to beauty school but i won't let her give me any more money after that. gotta be able to spread my wings and take care of myself.

  4. Honestly, I would be thankful for the money. I would go to the good college, because that is my parents' and grandparents' intention.

    At the same time, I would constantly question if my other siblings & cousins resented me, even if they say they didn't. That would also make me feel lonely, and constantly paranoid that they were talking about me. I would also feel guilty that my parents give everything to me and nothing to my siblings.  

    Finally, I would feel overwhelmed, because my parents and grandparents are giving me a huge responsibility. I have no choice but to be successful, and when it comes time for THEM to be taken care of, it will be all on my shoulders, because why would my siblings come around for them?

  5. f*ck everyone else keep the money. Only give it to one of them if they are dirt poor and really need it. Your parents gave you the money for a reason, as they say, respect your elders.

  6. i would feel really bad, and spoiled  that i get these great privelages and opportunities and my other family members won't.

  7. i would try to make the most of your college education and help the other children through college or tell your parents and grandparents that you don't deserve all the money

  8. Honestly... I would be grateful that I would have been able to go to a good college and stuff, but i would feel bad that my siblings and cousins would not be given the same opportunity.  As soon as I would find out that they were actually doing that, I would do whatever I could to give them the same opportunities that I had.

  9. I don't know.  I am the oldest, but I left home at 17 because of the abuse that I couldn't stand anymore and my parents who loved my younger sister (8 years younger) more than me, sent her to college/university for nursing and bought her a car and rented her an appartment for the next 3 years paid upfront.

    She's a spoilt brat.

  10. The truth is i will b very happy, but i will pay them back when i got the job.

  11. Honestly.. if this was me I may feel a bit guilty. But  I would get over it because you can look at it like a loan only without interest. You can go to college, graduate, get a good job, and earn enough money to pay them back. It may take a while, but that won't matter toyour parents. They might not even let you pay them back.

    Hope I Helped :)

  12. honestly, i think id feel a little bit guilty for not insisting on having my siblings having a little bit more of the funds. 100,000 IS alot of money but then again it went to college it wasnt just blown. In my opinion it should have been split up a little bit more evenly. I am the oldest and my sister is 10 years younger than i. I was in somewhat of the same sitution when we did the wills but i insisted the fund be split up between us equally

  13. I would feel privileged that my grandmother and parents want the best for me but at the same time a little funny being singled out over all my siblings and cousins.

  14. guilty guilty guilty

    but if it was their decition to do it, they must have a good reason to

  15. I would feel spoiled and pretty bad that I got a lot of privelages and my other siblings and cousins aren't going to the get the same ones.

  16. i would feel obligated to do well in school and get a good job so i could pay them back someday

  17. I would feel special but i could not accept the money. they are overexcited and just want to do whatever it is that they can to help.

    Hope that helps!

  18. I would feel incredibly guilty, and if I was in a position to do so, I would try to help my younger siblings with their college expenses (assuming I had already graduated and had a job).

  19. id feel really bad about that...........
