[quote=lucknskill]Man, i always get in that situation too when i have money. It's really hard to fend off your family sometimes but i really got fed up one time that i ignored their needs in times of emergency. They end up paying me after they worked hard for some money later on. The moral of the lesson is, be strict sometimes, it's really important to make contracts and things like that even if they are your family. Make sure they are responsible enough to pay it at a given deadline. Reward yourself too man, i believe you are a good person but give time for yourself. [/quote] ey, thanks.. it's my problem too that i crumble down with their dramas. i decided this will be the last time. i shall put my feet down and demand what i deserve. tc
