Does anyone else have that one family member?

Who only calls when they need money and it’s at least once a month or more?

I always wait for Sundays because at least twice a month my sister-in-law calls asking to be sent money. Always on a Sunday.

She always says she has no money for food or clothes, but her Instagram account says otherwise

I'm sorry about that.. I am leading a different lifestyle and sometimes I ask my family for money, but it's not more than few times per year. I am always very careful and I always let few months to pass before I ask again, and I usually don't unless it's gets really difficult.

I do have this guy from India though whom I met in Nepal who's asking me to send him money now and again. Once he was telling me how he was cold etc and I send him a jacket. That's all I have sent him but he keeps on asking and I really feel strange as I don't have much myself but then I understand that it's always a matter of scale.

It's a whole wild field, to give and to receive, and when is it proper and when is it necessary.
