He's a nuclear engineer and makes around $140k/year before taxes. He is paying one college tuition and supports himself, my mom and my brother as well. The mortgage on the house is already payed off but he is now paying another mortgage on a condo he bought in Florida for $200k a couple years ago. He refuses to get rid of his 1987 Chevy Celebrity even though it barely works and is falling to pieces. He also owns a '96 Mercury Sable and a '99 Plymouth Voyager. The sable was intended for my bro, but he never drives it, so I don't see why my dad doesn't trash the chevy and just use the sable!
Why is he always saying he's so poor and that he'd need to make at least $200k/year in order for us to live like everyone else in the neighborhood (their houses aren't falling apart and neither are their cars)
I forgot to mention that he paid for my entire college education (4 years at a private school @ about 20k/year), my brother's education (2 years at a state school and 4 years at a private school), and part of my sister's education (2 years at a state school). Right now he's just paying for my sister's school, as I mentioned earlier....
