True, but I cannot think of anyone I would rather help out than my 3 children and our 5 grandchildren. As long as they are living responsibly.

We aren't wealthy but are completely debt free and have enough income for our lifestyle which doesn't include island resorts, jewelry, or casinos. We do travel, mostly to the western U.S.

I concur with Hastings. Mine are hard working, responsible and conservative. My wife died. When I die, my kids will do quite well financially. And they know what’s coming their way.
Sorry if some of you have a poor relationship with your kids. That situation in some cases might be salvageable, if you try.

that is a low blow and talking out your ass at the same time.....and the world is full of kids waiting for mom and pops to die so they can get their fair share......bob
