This is hilarious. They're gonna spend all their money clinging to life. The future they made by raping the future. and they won't even just leave!
My parents have a ranch house, 3 adult kids and medical issues. Assuming they don't go to a home and have to sell their house to afford it, my brother is going to need it a lot more than I do. Similar in laws. It would be the same for in law grandparents but they happened to be the type that will die before seeking help. It'll probably get us sued by disgruntled family in inheritance disputes anyways.
We're on our own.
My mother passed recently and was the caregiver for my father who has Parkinson’s and can’t live alone. My parents managed to save some money but not enough to afford him moving to an assisted living facility but has too much to qualify for Medicaid. There won’t be enough money to care for him let alone any sort of inheritance. Fucking system is so fucking broken.
Only things I expect to inherit from boomers is a fucked up ecological sauna, do-nothing political system, and more taxes.
