Re: What to say/do to get spendthrift relatives to cool it? I should add if they are older there may be some social services you can report them to like adult protective services, namely for the elderly who can't take care of themselves, and are living in unsafe and unhealthy conditions. This will help fast track getting them out of that scenario, and making it so they can't return to the property if they even own it.
Even after my stupid moron of a mother would write checks which caused my father to bounce checks, and was removed from the accounts she got credit cards to only further threaten their financial future which she had the bills sent to a p.o box where she used the credit cards to pay each other on crap we never really saw. After she clearly couldn't pay them without his money, and it was clear she did this behind his back I'm sorry he didn't divorce her except he would still owe, probably having to pay her alimony for doing nothing besides putting him in worse position too.
In the event my father passes I will get her in a retirement home, or sanitarium as she clearly can't take care of herself. She'll buy craploads of stuff she doesn't need, and ignore the basics, then blame others for the position she put herself in.
