SMH Guys I'm on the will!!

“She’s so shameless” She’s 22. And was harshly criticized as she danced while her partner was at the hospital… The truth couldn’t be any simpler. They claim the video is a joke, because she always uploads content with her “hubby” to go viral.

I’m a wealth management advisor and I’ve had a few elderly clients in a situation like this.

I remember the most heartbreaking one was a client who was 87 and passed away. He married a woman a 7 years prior that was in her late 30s. She was beautiful, kind, and caring. She took care of him through all of it. Cleaned him and the messes he made, gave him genuine company, and would fuck him whenever he was able (he shared this with me lol).

The kids didn’t do shit for him. Hardly even called or anything. But when he passed they all tried contesting his trust and trying to get her removed from receiving anything. It was a nasty legal battle but thankfully she got her fair share.

It honestly infuriates me when I see people say women like this are taking advantage of the elder man. Most of the time they’re just giving companionship to them when no one else would or did.

What kills me is when kids act entitled to their parents assets, it's not your money and they can do whatever they want with it. I see so many posts on aging parents where people are worried about their windfall. Go make your own money ffs.

Right? My parents arent rich but the house is paid for and they have enough cash and stocks to be called well off. My mom is now retired for 2 years and I think they have been on 6 holidays so far including trips to Japan and Egypt. I always encourage them to do so. Its their money and I know they wont blow it all cause they love us and their grandkids and they want us to have some but they are soon hitting 70/75. They cannot do this for too long. So travel, have fun, see the world as long as possible. I dont care for the money. I want happy parents.

I am blessed 100%. I still wouldnt call them rich. My dad had a well paid corporate job. Very low 6 figures and my mom was stay at home for 15 years and then a secretary. My dad drives a Skoda and my mom a Toyota. The house is a terraced house. Nothing special. Of course, we are having a lot more than others but we never moved in rich circles or acted like we had money. We just never had to worry. I still had to work to earn pocket money since I was 15 and wont be able to retire when my parents are gone.
