<prompt> Human: Background on gfs mother: my girlfriends mother quit her job last August and hasnt found steady employment since then. Currently she is unemployed. Well call her Judy. Judy owns a home, is around 55, has 10 dogs she fosters as part of a program to find permanent homes. The house is packed with dogs and people. When permanent homes are found for the dogs, Judy gets more dogs. She has an alcoholic boyfriend who lives there along with her nephew, who just started attending college. The nephews mother, Judys sister, also has a problem keeping a job. No one works in that household right now.My girlfriend has odd jobs is a student, and sends money to her mom. I keep track of money she has borrowed from me to help her mom, currently its 200. But now I am told her mom needs 2000 to keep her home as part of some Save Your Home California program. The thing is, her mom is not reliable, so this figure could change based on past experience. Ive always assumed these programs are scams so banks can say theyre trying to help homeowners while doing nothing to solve the problem.My background: I really dont want to give her mom any money. After losing everything financially a few years ago, I separated ties with the person who was a financial black hole, and I can hopefully retire early now. On one hand, I feel bad for her mother, on the other hand, I dont want history to repeat and have someone take from me everything Ive worked hard at and never give back.I have loaned my brother money at 0 interest, but he has no problems finding a job and he pays me back, same thing with my parents who made smart decisions, are retired comfortably, and own assets. From a financial perspective, Judys decisions, from how she has raised her daughternot getting a drivers license, to hording things dogs and things, to spending her retirement on treatment for a dying dog, not having a stable job, flying off the handle from time to time, etc., makes me reluctant to give her any more money. Note that Judy feels bad about this and how it could affect me.What are my options?A Loan her 2k, adding to the tab, Judy uses this program to somehow save her home? Not sure how this works, but I fear if I delve further into this and ask questions, I will be sucked into it and if I dont give her 2k, then when plan B happens, Im the bad guy.B let her deal with it, she forecloses, lives on food stamps like she has done in the past when she raised her daughter, the people she supports will have to fend for themselves.tldr; girlfriends mother is hitting rock bottom financially, what, if anything, should I do.  <response>: Stop giving her mom money. Stop giving your girlfriend money to give to her mom.
