Am I the Asshole?

I don’t have a relationship with my mother and I want to be in my siblings lives and they live in AZ.

It’s expensive for me to travel because I have a dog and have to pay for a hotel.

I told my 18 year old brother to save his money and come hang on his bday with me in LA.

He’s buying his own round trip train ticket and I told him to bring cash.

I’m going to supply him with a place to crash and meals but I don’t have extra money to go to say like a themepark and cover his ticket and mine get me?

By the way I got him a Xbox Series X for his bday since he still had the last generation Xbox One so it’s not like I’m being cheap but I don’t have money to buy his ticket, pay for his activities, pay for food and still buy the Xbox.

In the past I covered all the expenses but money is tight right now.

I actually feel guilty about this.
