My entitled dad is demanding $15,000 for a new truck, but I'm refusing to give him the money

0:06.4

because he is notorious for never paying people back. And now he's furious, claiming that I owe him

0:12.0

the money for this truck because he had to raise me all the way up to adulthood and I honestly

0:16.4

could not be more upset. Here's what happened. So for a little bit of backstory, my dad is very

0:21.5

entitled and thinks that everyone owes him something. He borrows money from people but more so from

0:26.9

his family. His brother, my uncle, has loaned him thousands of dollars for loans for stupid stuff

0:32.8

like a new car that he bought only for a then to get repossessed by the bank. My uncle has also

given him money to fund the divorce from my mom and to pay for his bankruptcy. In fact, because of

1:11.0

thousands of dollars so I don't blame them for cutting him off. Anyway, my dad is now a retired

1:16.6

truck driver. When he was still working, he was driving the company own truck and wanted to make

1:21.6

more money so he needed to buy his own truck. He tried to do this once before when I was graduating

1:26.8

from college and wouldn't you guess it? He ended up losing it for not making payments. According

1:31.5

to him, it was because he wasn't making enough money. So several years ago before my husband and

1:36.9

I got married, my dad called me out of the blue one day and he was asking me how I was doing.

1:42.1

For some context, I had just started a well-paying job at the same hospital where my husband works.

1:48.2

We were both making good money and we were saving for our wedding at the time. While we are not

rich, we are keeping our heads afloat as most millennials are trying to do right now. We do not own
