My dad is 60 now and always said he’d leave some money for my siblings and I. Luckily he also simultaneously raised us to not rely on other people and to plan your life as best you can. He developed dementia and needs to be under 24/7 care. It costs $8,000 a month. At this rate he’ll more than likely have enough to cover his care costs until he passes and I’m thankful as fuck everyday he has that money. I don’t give a fuck if I see one cent just as long as he has enough for himself. I’ve never let myself think it was ever going to be mine.
My mom and dad got Long Term Care Insurance a long time ago. My dad passed away before he could collect on it, but my mom is currently getting around $13,000 a month from it and this goes up by 5% per year, so she can afford to live pretty much wherever she wants for the rest of her life. Naturally enough, insurance companies do not offer this kind of policy any more.
My dad is 65, and told me when I was 17 (when he had millions of dollars) “I can’t take it with me and ain’t leaving it to you.”
My dad is the ultimate boomer, has had everything handed to him and he got ahead in life by help, from parents, wife’s, and mother and laws. But acts like he did it all on his own. Also he the type that gets pissed if his children get ahead of him in life or don’t rely on him. Like my brother has done. He has zero friends and cares little of other people unless they are doing something for him. He also loves that we are destroying the planet (yes he believes in climate change) he rational that by saying he wants the world to end when he dies. Totally doesn’t want to leave nothing to future generations. Trump same way, why my father likes him.
You’re a good kid. I’ve seen some people get really pissed off about losing “their money” like that and forcing the person to live with them or avoiding caring for them to save the money until they pass so they still get “their inheritance”.
