So overarching question is that my mom took out a bunch of loans in my name.

She's making minimum payments, but I'm trying to kind of get this whole thing sorted out and out of my name.

How would you suggest that I

approach her, the situation as a whole?

How old are you?

27.

When did all this happen, huh?

It started back in 22, I want to say 21, 22.

It was after my divorce.

So I was kind of just starting caution to the wind and just saying yes to everything.

Oh, so you agreed to her doing this.

Yes.

It all started because the landlord wanted to sell the house that I grew up in, but she's currently living in, and she offered us a pretty good deal.

And my brother and I, we bought the house together for my mom. And now she's struggling to make the payments. And I'm just waiting for the day that I get a call that, hey, your payments do.

And my wife and I, we can't afford the payment ourselves.

So I just don't know what to do.

Wow.

You bought the house together for your mom.

And then she took out credit card loans in your name, all with your permission.

Yes, sir.
