Just I've always wanted to build myself to be a better man and be an example for when I do eventually have a son.

And I was sitting there at work one day and I knew that I just I had to go find out if I could make it through boot camp.

But I knew that financially I wanted something bigger for myself, so I didn't sign active duty.

I went at reserves so I could come back and ultimately make more money here.

that's what i did and i noticed as the years went on when i started making more money that my parents started treating me a little bit differently so just to give reference um beforehand obviously i wasn't paying rent i wasn't really doing much because of the young age and up when i hit 18 that's when they kind of started charging me rent uh me and my sister both were paying right around 200 nothing crazy hit 19 and that's right when my rent went up

And my sister, being that she got herself in debt at a young age, they cut her completely off, stopped her from paying rent, and they charged me more, which I thought was a little strange, but I kind of said whatever to it.

And my father has always been good with finances, been good at making money.

Up until recently, he started focusing more on spending money than keeping it.

And he makes good money.

the only issue is that he spends more than he makes and he's got himself into some debt and he's talked about me taking over his payments he got a motorcycle he likes i like motorcycles but i personally don't buy anything that i can't afford so i have no debt and i plan on keeping it that way the only issue is when he gets injured he usually looks at me for money and recently

He borrowed a decent amount of money for me, around $3,000, which he ended up paying me back eventually, slowly.

But my biggest issue is right now, as I said, he's pretty motivated.

I think he's kind of just on the addiction of motivation rather than action because he's right around 320 pounds-ish, 5'7", 39 years old.

And I think he can still get out of this situation.

the only issue is that he has a hard time listening to people and i want to sit down and have a conversation with him appropriately without him getting upset with me or emotional because he seems to get that way or without even bring bringing up kicking me out because like i said for his age and that weight i don't imagine he'll make it much longer and he's been super motivated by you andy with your story being your weight the only issue is like i said he doesn't really listen to people he has a hard time understanding things

Not so much because he doesn't understand that it's an issue, but because he's always been a it's not that easy kind of person.

Which, I mean, I've tried to convince him otherwise, but by the looks of it, in the long run, he gets injured.

I'm going to be taking on a lot of his debt, which I don't want to, and it's going to fall on me.

Ultimately, the house, I've recently found out, same thing, my mother has a decent amount of debt, and she's kind of turned to me for money, which, of course, I don't want to say no to her, but

i found out she was slowly taking money from me through my bank account which i had to have a conversation with her about and she tried kind of hiding it for me and i just i want to know how i can approach him with the situation in appropriate matter because i do care about him and i want him to be here in the long run for when i build my future but i also don't want his decisions now to not allow me to start my future because he's going to take that from me ultimately with his debt and
