Woman's Family Pressures Her to Fund Her Sister's Lavish Lifestyle Despite Not Contributing Themselves: 'Family helps family'

Welcome, women of the web. Working hard and becoming financially stable, or even successful and abundant, is an incredible feeling. To not have to worry about rent, to not have to budget intensely to the point that you're counting every cent, or to be able to buy generous gifts for your friends and family on their birthdays or over the holidays is an immense blessing. An unfortunate side effect of being the one in your family that 'made it', though, is that you are suddenly expected to fund everyone's issues. From paying for other's education to helping with rent and debts, it can feel pretty good to help out someone you love when they are in a desperate pinch. However, it can become overwhelming when you seem to become the family bank, and when it comes to close and personal relationships, some entitled people in your inner circle might feel like they don't need to pay you back. 
In our story today, a successful woman is expected by her family to help her sister out - not with with rent or emergency medical costs -  but with her lavish lifestyle filled with expensive clothes, luxury trips, and fine jewelry. Scroll down to read how our protagonist set boundaries with her hypocritical family.
