Sister in her 80s borrows money for years, signs loan papers but never repays
A woman says her older sister — a real estate agent and substitute teacher in her 80s — has long relied on family loans, signed promissory notes she never honored, and prompted her sibling to set a boundary to only cover rent.
Dear Eric: My older sister, with whom I’ve never been close, is in her 80s and highly dysfunctional with money and life. She can’t make ends meet despite being a real estate agent and a substitute teacher.
I have “loan papers” she signed years back promising to pay me/us back, which never happened. Finally, I put a boundary on us to only pay her rent.
