PP, you seriously think that someone owes you?  Your parents?  For real?  How old are you?  If I were your parents, I would be embarrassed for you and leave every penny to charity out of spite for your greedy shameless entitled attitude.  I actually heard someone say "it will be mine someday anyway" with this same lazy sh*t attitude.  Do for yourself, why don't you.  Are you *legitimately*  (not in a hypochondriac way) ill that you can not work?  Otherwise, YUCK.  Just yuck.  You disgust me. and I don't even know you.

hah, glad that I disgust you.  Yes, I think you owe your kids to try to pass on something after you are gone.  That doesn't mean you don't raise them to be self-reliant with good education and a good work ethic.  I help my sisters and my parents out unconditionally.  They can count on me and I can count on them.  We are a family.  I'm 41 years old.  I certainly plan on leaving my kids an inheritance and that would please me much more than spending a lot of money in my old age.[/quote]

I am the PP whose mother has dementia, and I hope to leave my kids an inheritance.  (I do not agree with you that I "owe" it to them.)  On the other hand, it is entirely possible if not likely that I will eventually need every penny of my retirement savings for medical care.

My mom's expenses will be going up to $500/day next month.  She never expected for her retirement to be trashed this way.  But this is how it is playing out.

The best-laid plans of mice and men, and all that.[/quote]
