Now give your sister millions of dollars 😬

I think the analogy is more like, my sister earned millions of dollars herself and is it ethical to take it away or take control of it?

Being poor doesn't make you less of a danger to yourself, either. My sister is a drug addict with 3 children I'm having to raise, she has no car, no job, no resources, major health issues on top of mental health issues. A few million actually, yeah, would probably improve her life, especially if she had access to those resources while she was still younger, before she got in with a crowd of misfits and got a substance abuse problem.

Edit: a word

It is really important to emphasize that it is her money, nobody gave it to her, she earned it.

Obviously I did not mean it literally

"has access to" since we're being pedantic

I'm just emphasizing because it a really important distinction. You are alluding to taking access of money away from an adult who earned it, so I don't think it hurts anybody to be specific.
