      @@JustinCase780 There are many things in parents' lives that are better demonstrated than discussed. For example, it's healthy for parents to show affection like hugging and kissing in front of their children, but it's not necessary for them to openly discuss details of their sexual relations. Likewise, it's enough for their kids to be shown that their parents are financially secure, industrious, prudent, and generous. The kids don't need to know the exact dollar amount in the bank.

    I worked with a waiter. It was so sad. He openly told us he was waiting for his parent to die because he was going to inherit all the money. He lived with the "yolo" attitude. Spent every cent he had on crap and money he didnt have. A few years later, I heard through a mutual friend that he was angry as the parent passed away and he didn't end up getting near what he expected. He's verging on bankruptcy. It made my heart so sad. Imagine waiting for something like that? Not trying to make the most of what time you have left together building memories? I dread the day I recieve inheritance. It means I've lost someone I love dearly. I'd rather my parents around than any amount of money.

      I know what you mean. I lost my father three months ago, and it has been so painful. I miss him so much and always will. My mother is 82, and will leave me a modest inheritance some day that will definitely be of assistance after I retire (I'm almost 58). But I would rather never see a dime of that inheritance if my mother could live healthfully for another 20 years!

      I'm right with you. I tell the story to everyone that I can....my dad and I get haircuts together. We've been going to the same barbershop at the same time for 30 years....I'm in my 40s right now and dad is in his 70s. We are both nearly bald (ok, it's advanced male pattern baldness with a bit in back and the sides, and nothing on top). But, we go together to get our hair cut. Someone will ask why I don't just shave it off...and my response is because "one day, dad and I won't be able to get our haircut together." Maybe he'll be physically unable to, or he'll have passed on, but in any scenario, it's a darn shame and a loss.
      So, yes, it makes my heart sad that that person you referred to that waited for his parents to die is on the verge of bankruptcy. That is sad that he waited to lose the people that he loved, then is losing the things that he thought he valued and will be left with neither.

      Those who buy luxury cars tend to keep chasing that high. It’s just like an addiction. In fact, consumerism is an addiction. And these patterns will lead to people running out of money in a few years when they could’ve retired extremely comfortably had they been intentional with the money

I'm so glad that someone like this guy was a lottery winner. He's humble and nice and now he's going to be more of that. He needs to focus on ensuring his children have the same personality type before any money is disclosed or given to them. The children need to WORK! Give them money when they are in their 30's and not a moment sooner.

I learned my mom made more than that amount (which was low) and ended up thinking she was being cheap and had negative feelings toward her because of it.

    Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

    is really a privilege to have millions in inheritance and is the really smart to raise your kids to not have sense of entitlement so they can work for their own money. when your raise your lids right, their inheritance will be a bonus to them and they will manage it well because they have made their own money and see how hard its to make money. i was left with nothing but i was able to build a 7 figure net worth on my own. made the right investment decisions, save and create multiple streams of income. My overall grace was my Saving and investing lifestyle with the assistance of a financial planner who I met at a financial seminar. So it worked out great for me.
