Aita for not lending my cousin money for her injured husband?

r/

My cousin has everything in the beginning but this wasn’t her year nor her family, her husband is the only one that works so that’s how everything gets paid for.

They have a 19 year old son, all the money they saved up went to his college tuition but their sok decided to take a gap year. After that gap year he never went back, his parents are upset because he wasted their money for him not to go back. Times got harder for them when nia husband when injury on the job. He’s a construction worker and they lift heavy stuff, it caused him to have a bone fracture. Its bad to point he needs surgery but they don’t have the money since they used it on their son.

It wasn’t getting better because their son would be very disrespectful to them, mess up the house, drinking, not looking for a job. Its a lot and I didn’t want to be apart of it but somehow I was, my cousin was calling me non-stop. I’m not going to lie after I became a real estate agent my family has been calling me for money because oh I have so much so its best to share, I’m like their bank.

Nia was visible upset and its understandable, she was saying what she had to say but I could tell she want beating around the bush. She then asksed if I can lens her some money to put aside for her husband’s surgery. I understand that she needs it but also it’s my money that I need for my needs. I told her she can probably make a gofundme because I’m not lending her any.

    If he didn’t go to school, where is all that money they saved?
