<human>: I'm not the closest to my cousin, but when I was younger he was like an older brother to me. He is getting married at the end of August. I'm not too sure what to do, I can't get the time off of work and if I lose my job I might be too poor (I can at least get by for a month or so). But, on the other hand I want to put family first. I have no idea what to do. 

The job I have right now is the highest paying job I have ever had being 13/hr and working perfectly with my schedule, gives me time for school and to train (I'm an athlete). I also pay my own rent as well. 

What would you guys do?

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Cousin is getting married. I can only go if I quit my job, but I'm poor as it is. I feel awful for choosing between family and work.
