[quote=Anonymous]Your kids get your money either way - either you help pay for stuff while you’re alive, or they get it when you die. So your options are to give them the money once they’re in their 50s and their own kids are grown and they don’t really need it, or to give it to them in their 20s/30s when they have school and small kids. My parents opted to give me money for things like daycare, house, etc in my 30s with the understanding that I’m not going to get anything when they pass away. Which I’m fine with, and it’s helped me out a TON. But you need to have those conversations and make sure they understand the choice they’re making - you don’t want them to get used to handouts and then be left broke when you die. [/quote]
