    That sounds a lot like the situation I had with my brothers, they would stay in their nest while I worked and they always wanted something from me so I left, moved in with a friend.

    From one person dealing with a brother (sort of brother-in-law in my case) living with them to another...I feel for you. But your money is your money and you shoul definitely get to the bottom of it.

    I'd definitely do what 81 said. Call him on it, tell him he needs to figure out what happened to the money and retrieve it. He should be just as bothered as you that one of his friends stole from his family.

    I agree it totally sucks, but you were aware that this is a regular thing (your brother bringing people home), you should not be leaving your wallet laying around.

    Sorry about that though.

    I pretty much live alone now...just JB and I ...but I learned long ago to hide my purse, never keep money in sight.
    That is a temptation no one needs! Even the good turn bad.
    Sorry for this though and also that your brother will feel responsible...perhaps not now but at some point in his life.

    I did! He says, "i dont understand how it could happen."
    REALLY?
    You crashed first, and your friends let themselves out.

    Yeah, in that sense it is a bit my fault. I guess.
    My mom said that to me... but on the other hand, that still pisses me off - it's bad enough that she lets my brother do whatever the fuck he wants, and lets his friends and him have control of the house, i thought i might have the one luxury of knowing i wouldn't have to hide my stuff in my OWN HOUSE.

    to be honest, most of my brothers friends I love... sometimes i'll even go out with them if i have the time or the energy to stay up, and i know they'd never do anything like steal my stuff or wake me up intentionally...
    but last night he just brought people home from a party and some of them i've never seen before.

    Yeah it really doesn't help people saying what you should have done ... hindsight and other people's "I would have done" attitudes don't change what happened.
    It sucks no matter what

    That's the problem, if he comes home with people you don't know, anything could happen.

    Hell, years ago, my sister threw a party and someone opened the bottom bedroom window and passed a TV set right through the window to someone waiting outside. Another party "guest" took a beer mug and threw it directly into the bathroom mirror.

    You just never know what people are going to do. It sucks, but you never know.

    Why the fuck should you have to hide your stuff in your own house?? it's fucking bullshit. don't let them assholes in your house till you find out who it was. then you have my permission to beat the holy shit out of him/her.

    +1. Get the names of the people you know, and call the police. Or, if you're feeling kindly disposed, call the people yourself first and tell them they have until the end of the day today to return the money _ no questions asked _ or at 5 p.m. you're on your way to the local PD with their names in your hand.

    After some "stuff" thats happened to my kids... robbed etc...the cops do nothing to find their belongings or
    to punish those involved even when they know who did it.
    Chalk it up to experience. Keep your valuables out of sight and don't let friends of friends come over,
    that's when trouble happens.
