I lost my car during the holidays and my brother allowed me to use his car until last month. I didn't pay a dime for 3 months until I had a job. I had been paying for the car up until last month. My brother was using my sisters truck during that time and didn't pay for it at all. All of the sudden, my brother and sister got into an argument and my brother claimed he would move out and would stop using her car. That meant he would take over his car and I was left with nothing.Right before that happened I had arranged for the monthly payment to be taken out of my account. He gave me no notice whatsoever of this, and by the beginning of the month I was going to be without a car and short of cash. My sister suggested I stopped the payment because it wasn't fair. I did and waited until he found out. It was a big bomb once he did. I pretended not to know why that happened, he just kept screaming at me telling me how irresponsible I am. I let him believe that was the case. The next day, my sister came to me saying she felt bad for betraying my brother, but that she wouldn't tell. I left during the day for a wedding and when I got back, she stopped me at the door to say that she had told him. I got no one to go to. She betrayed me instead and he couldn't care less about me.What to do?

 I didn't really understand what was going on in your family, but I do understand this: all these problems seem to be the tip of the iceberg. Apparently they are all "not happy" that they had to help you while you were having financial problems.
If you can afford to leave, move out and keep a safe distance from all financial problems of theirs.
Te deseo suerte.
