Have them pay me the interest/ payments that I had to make? Am I being a heel? My brother was killed in a car accident about 8 months ago and had no life insurance. My parents had no money. They were in shock and barely able to do anything. I put the funeral on my credit card. It was about $16000.00 dollars and my credit card interest rate is 18%. I made several large payments from my cash savings. I got it down to $7,300.
They are settling his estate.They got $50,000 from the car insurance , so they will pay me back from that.
They have asked what amount I expect. Am I a heel to expect the interest and payments back???? From the figures I have given what would be that amount? Any and all advice would be appreciated

they have lost him and all they have is the money. have them pay you what the main cost was. one day you may need them for something and you know they will be there for you and will not exspect you to pay anything extra.

I think you are being fair. The money is coming from the settlement. Your parents will get what is left over. You should not suffer any financial loss. They should be glad you could do it.
