[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article is biased, IMO. Skewing against the horrid boomer generation. Where was it ever written that adult children should count on significant inheritances and parents should conserve/preserve their assets for their kids to enjoy after their deaths? Most Boomers did not inherit money from their parents, the Greatest Generation, who were Depresssion-era. The money Boomers have they earned. Many of them (working blue collar jobs) also put their kids through college, which they themselves didn't have the benefit of. Yet their adult kids begrudge them going on trips and enjoying what little time they have left? What a sad world we live in. [/quote] Is that true? The greatest generation and silent generation tended to earn a lot since the depression because they already had housing and got a lot of governmental assistance after the war. Most of the families I know received at least a house as part of inheritance. Often more.[/quote]
