Picture this: an uncle generously saves up a college fund for his hardworking niece, only to find himself in the middle of a family feud. The story begins when a restaurant owner (34M) offers his niece and nephew (twins, both 18 now) part-time jobs at his establishment. While his niece accepts the offer and starts saving for college, the nephew chooses a different job. The uncle ends up saving a whopping $63,000 for his niece’s education, but when the time comes to transfer the money, all hell breaks loose.

NTA, explain how your niece earned the money to nephew

Nephew missed out on college fund, but could still get similar deal

“NTA. Print out an accounting of how many hours your niece worked for you, and how many posts she made. I am willing to give nephew the same amount of money, provided he works the same number of hours for me. Let them find out what happens when you burn bridges.”
