Question: I have a family question!? Please HELP!!!!!?
Ok so here's the deal!. So my husband just started a new job and he has to travel a little bit!. We only have one car which I need!. So until we can finance another car we have been borrowing his uncles tracker!. He has 2 cars and says he doesn't use the tracker so we can borrow it!. We agreed that day that we would pay the payment on it since that was only fair!. We totally agree and that is fine but now all of a sudden he calls up and is like oh by the way the insurance it due so you need to pay it!. I don't think that is right!. He never said anything about insurance back then and he is only doing this because he is stingy and is looking for a quick buck!. We pay the payment fair and square but I feel like if he had the tracker sitting in his driveway like it was for months before we borrowed it, he would still have to pay the insurance still!. Like, he is trying to throw in our face that it is due and he can't afford to pay it!.!.!.!. BUT here's my thing!.!.!.!. he can't hold US accountable because if we brought it back tomorrow and it was parked, he would still HAVE to pay that insurance no matter what and he was paying it for years before we came along!. SO how come all of a sudden now that we have the tracker and making payments does he now say OH I WANT INSURANCE MONEY TOO!? I feel like he is using us!. Please give me your opinions!. Thank you

( also!.!.!. This payment we are making is free extra money a month to HIM mind you cause he would have to make his payment anyways if we were not using it )Www@QuestionHome@Com

yes! ur right!
I suggest that you make other arrangements of transportation and return the tracker to your uncle!. He's not being fair!.!.so instead of having an argument over it, just return it peacefully with out getting insulted by him when he gets angry and asks for the tracker back!

He has insurance on his car/tracker not on who drives it!. You probably have car insurance on your husband's car too!. So, tell you're uncle that the tracker is insured on your insurance and then call your agent and make sure that it is!. Generally, you're insured for whatever car you drive!.!.!.!.especially if it's a temporary situation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is NOT the appropriate place for this question!. This is the genealogy forum!. A family squabble is NOT a genealogy issue!. Researching dead people is what genealogists do!. Your question is more of a legal or ethics discussion, not genealogy!. There are legal and ethics categories on Yahoo!. Use one of those!.

For the record, he SHOULD have mentioned the insurance as well, but since you agree that you using the car implies that it is only fair that you make the payment, then by extension, it is also only fair that you pay the insurance!. The best rule of thumb is to not get involved in such business or financial dealings with relatives and friends!. Your best option is to return the tracker and get out of this financial arrangement!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
