Ever found yourself torn between helping out a loved one and protecting your own financial future?

On today's episode, we're diving into a real dilemma. Our listener's mom, despite being the world's best, is drowning in credit card debt and has turned to them for help. While they've lent a helping hand in the past, moving to the big city looms on the horizon, and they're hesitant to dive deep into their savings. Should they lend the money? And how can someone escape the quicksand of credit card debt?
