Can your guardian force you to spend or not spend your money?

Yes, a guardian can have the authority to manage a person's financial decisions, including how money is spent or not spent, especially if the person is deemed unable to make sound financial choices. This authority is typically granted through a legal process, such as guardianship or conservatorship. However, the extent of this control can vary based on the laws of the jurisdiction and the specific terms set by the court. It's important for the individual to understand their rights and the terms of the guardianship arrangement.
