Lucky for me my parents were both "I didn't save anything for retirement, my kids will take care of me when I'm older", so I don't have to suffer through this.
Inheritance is clearly societal ill, and even on a personal level, depending on inheritance might cause family troubles
I'm suing my sister right now because her low life boyfriend talked her into short changing us. Then my mom died so I'm getting double. Yeah. Family troubles indeed.
You'd be completely wrong. In my case.
How dare they raise you and then spend their own money?!
I would argue that the stereotype is that most Boomer parents did not actually do much "raising." They had kids out of some sense of obligation and then kept on focusing on themselves.
Boomers, as a cohort, are incredibly narcissistic and obstinate.
That said, I don't particularly care about an inheritance; I want my Dad to live as long as he can and be happy and healthy.
Most people need to sell their estate to pay for end of life care, just tell your boomer parents they can spend their last days in whatever dumpster their meagre estate can afford and they might rethink their next cruise.
My parents are land owners My grandfather owns a mansion My uncles are business owners and landlords
I have two siblings I have no clue what I'm going to be given and this will stress the fuck out of me
At least I have confirmation that they'll buy me a place for me to stay in Istanbul and those places aren't exactly cheap either
But what about my house in Denizli, apartment and shops in Eskişehir, farmland near Muğla, and the spa & hotel within Kütahya?
I am not one of those children that clutches their pearls for family members to give what they busted their ass for away for free. My father just paid off the mortgage of his home. It is his.
And he paid it for over 25 years as people like us lived in and left it. It is just unearned entitlement for any of us to come to him, demanding or expecting something he earned through hard work.
And it is something generations after his wont understand. You try being 66 years old and enduring the grind for so long to finally have something like a home to yourself. And not have a thought of reluctance of just giving it away.
It is ironic considering how much of a clutch todays generations have with their phones. Does anyone think they are the kind to give a home away when it is paid off? You tell me.
We're talking about what happens to our parents stuff when they die. What are they going to do, burn down the house when they die? Oh wait, that's exactly what they're doing, climate change is a hoax to a large portion of boomers, housing costs have risen well past cost of living, university costs have ballooned to unsustainable levels saddling an entire generation of people with debt they can't pay off, we have some of the most ineffective, expensive health care in the world, and oh, to top it off, we just elected a far right government that wants to wipe their ass with the constitution, and usher in the U.S. version of the third Reich. Some inheritance..
A ton of it is going to scammers overseas too, even better.
That gives me hope, it's kind of like reparations
I'll certainly be out of this world long before I ever stopped to think about my retirement. That's my retirement plan.
I want my parents to enjoy what they've earned and to have enough money to handle expenses of aging. I'm an anti natalist but I don't fault then for doing something that was expected by everyone at the time which was having kids, and they really did their best. I have dedicated my life to gerontology and helping the aging population. If humanity is going extinct, let's go out with compassion.
I'm relying on my inheritance from my mum to get a house, but that's mostly from selling her house, I'm sure her actual savings will be quite low by the time that comes around.
