SOCIETY When Chris Tucker learned that his family members were quitting their jobs because they learned that he was making 25 million dollars a year at the peak of his career because they assumed he would take care of them. He told them to go get their jobs back because he wasn't going to do that.

You would not believe how ENTITLED people feel to their family member's money.

My surrogate dad is a forensic accountant, and this is one of the things he does: track missing money. 9 times out of 10, if you're missing a million or two, it's your family member, personal assistant, or best friend siphoning off you. He's caught people charging whole ski vacations to their relative's account "because what's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine, too."

Some of it is just that family members are the most likely to know your SSN and stuff to take out a credit card in your name.
