[quote=Anonymous]I'm with you, OP. My own parents do a variation where they say they wish they could help us (e.g., with college savings) but they can't - then [i]they [/i]go buy a sports car, and tell me how much I'll enjoy the car when I inherit it. Their money is theirs to spend, but the way they talk about it is so awkward. My parents grew up poor and don't have good financial education generally. Like a lot of people in that situation, they cannot fathom the idea of planned giving during their lifetime: they think that leaving an inheritance, preferably of real estate, is the pinnacle of what you could do for your kids.
