>In all truth I care very little for him... I feel that it would only be right to extent him one final act of brotherly kindness... but at least I can rest easy with the knowledge that I tried to help.

What you actually feel is guilt for abandoning your struggling brother, you don't feel "sorry for him." Abandoning him IS selfish and you clearly aren't helping him because it would be difficult and unrewarding to you personally. You've got the Western mindset of personal success as the only goalpost for success in life. Your own brain is telling you this is wrong by making you feel guilt, but you won't accept it.
