I don't like encouraging others?

I was the first one from my family to graduate college, no one supported me along the way. Now that I am a bit older family members ask for advice and money. I say no or keep distance and they get mad. I don't have a desire to help others succeed on my spare time I go with my friends to the beach and get drunk. . Is this bad?

    You won't encourage them because it's something you never got - despite how much you needed it and wanted it. If that changes for you, help them to make that part of their life a bit easier by sharing what you experienced and learned.

    I don't loan money to family or friends because it just doesn't work out, so I understand that part.
