Sister you did the right thing in declining haram money, mashallah. you should try and guide your relative to the straight path. indeed you and your family will truly prosper.
024.046 YUSUFALI: We have indeed sent down signs that make things manifest: and Allah guides whom He wills to a way that is straight. PICKTHAL: Verily We have sent down revelations and explained them. Allah guideth whom He will unto a straight path. SHAKIR: Certainly We have revealed clear communications, and Allah guides whom He pleases to the right way.
We have indeed sent down (in this Quran) manifest Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, lawful and unlawful things, and the set boundries of Islamic religion, etc. that make things clear showing the Right Path of Allah). And Allah guides whom He wills to a Straight Path (i.e. to Allah's religion of Islamic Monotheism).

Rather you should be wishing that you were poor. The more wealth you have in this life, the harder it becomes for you to gain wealth in the next life, unless you give your wealth in charity. In this life money comes and goes, but faith and morals are the things which last. My family is very concerned with money, except for me. I do not want to be rich or even well off. I would rather be living as a homeless than in a mansion.

I'm bored of being poor, nobody listens to poor people.

There are many people who were poor and ended up becoming famous do to their character and their devotion to the cause of Allah s.w.t. Don't forget that most of the prophet Muhammad's companions were poor people and young people. They were considered unimportant before Islam, but through Islam they have cemented their place as some of the most important and respected people in history. There are examples of people like that in our present time as well. Remember that even if you amass all of the well in the world, it will not bring you eternal happiness. It will only keep you pleased until you die. And then all of your wealth can do nothing to help you. The only thing which follows us to the next life is our deeds.
I wish I was poor so I wouldn't be accountable on the day of judgement for all my income....less money u have less questions u are going to be asked about money....more money more questions subhanAllah...as in if you have 100 dollars Allah swt going to ask for the every single dollar u spent on summit.
I don't have the ref. but I know it goes like this. The poor will enter Jannah 500 years before the rich simply because the rich will be held up and made to account for their wealth.
So sister, the rich and practising will also go, after they have accounted for how, why and where they spent their wealth.
