  Decisions have consequences. Brother 1 chose to be 140K in debt. Brother 2 didn’t. It’s not Brother 2’s problem to solve.

    I’d still help you out if you were in a car crash, even though it was your decision to drive a vehicle.

    Though of course, this doesn’t mean helping out is mandatory.

      Nah, they decided to buy a more affordable car with only a 3-star crash rating because they decided to get stressed about their only financing option being complete dogshit because of a wrecked economy, because they decided to have a job that required going into the office.

      Sure, but nobody would choose to be in a car crash.

      Bro chose to go into debt. Big difference.

      Probably them choosing to do the thing. Someone doing a PhD might be hoping to land a good job later on and be able to through that pay off the debt. Or they want to pursue their passion, even if it means debt. It’s a decision to go for those. Could’ve gone to trade school.
