Huge family on my mom's side. I am one of last 3 of the like 20 something grand kids. When the first grand kids came along, they all got awesome cars, grad parties, college, etc all paid for by grandparents. Then said bad person early cousins all wrecked cars, drank way out of college, etc. So pissed off grandparents stopped paying for that stuff before I had the chance at getting elite free stuff.
Currently, most of the same cousins are either living at home still in their 40's or running financial scams on old friends of my grandparents.
woof.
