Abby, it is time for you to be let in on a little secret:

Money and Common Sense do not always go hand-in-hand.
Money and The Appreciation of Having It do not always go hand-in-hand.
Money and Self Control do not always go hand-in-hand.
Money and Maturity do not always go hand-in-hand.

Some people are well-off and very nice, and some are wankers. Some people are poor and very nice, and some are wankers. Don't whine about this doofus. You are just making yourself upset over the shallowness of someone that might never "get it" when you should be learning from him about these things. Let him be your shining example of what a spoiled brat looks like to others. Do not look that way to others. Whining about him puts you in the same category as him.

Good luck. Don't steal his tuba. (Yes, I know that you were kidding about that.) Just let him be a doofus; it sounds like he is very good at it!

Values and finances are not related - try to have good personal values and let others be who they are. He will either grow up or he won't. Getting all upset about him is really a pointless waste of time from your life that you can never get back. Don't let him affect you this way and he can't take that time from your life.
