Why is this only a western phenomenon?

Here in Pajeetland, my dad has an inheritance of $400k waiting for me and has never ever taken money from me

American parents take rent from their own kids. My dad would kill himself before ever doing that

Because in America the elites have perpetuated a culture of 'Voluntary generational poverty'.

That is it is somehow immoral to give your children the best chances to live a good life and instead you should let them be poor because 'they gotta work hard like I did' despite their being massive real estate and stock bubbles which are perpetuating wealth inequality. So these boomers which are flushing their families wealth down the drain because 'my kids outta earn it themselves' are basically dooming their children and their childrens children to life long poverty as they cannot get decent positions in the real estate and stock markets.

The only hope young people have today is getting in on bitcoin and other notable crypto assets. And maybe 50 years from now if you get in Space mining stocks, but that is literally it. If you don't have generational wealth in the next 10 years you and your family will be doomed to be part of the world wide 'useless' class as software eats all the jobs in the world, people without yield producing assets will be forced to be slaves to the government living off UBI until they die, whilst the elites enjoy pseudo immortality and explore the stars with their AI robot work forces.

You drew the short straw. You have nigger family. Stop giving them gibs, because they will continue to exploit you. In fact, stop giving gibs to anyone, unless you're sure they have strong principles. You are seen as rich, whether it's true or not. And rich don't need all that money.

You’re kinda up shit’s creek but here’s advice for other anons for this situation.
Don’t think of it as a loan, think of any money you give to family or friends as a gift. Where you don’t expect to be paid back. So figure out what amount you’re comfortable with where it won’t strain your finances or the relationship (for me, maybe $5-800 for a close friend and maybe $2-3,000 for a family member) and just give it to them and assume you’re never being paid back.
If they DO pay you back, then they’ve opened themselves up to another gift if they need it. Otherwise, they have maxed out your limit and don’t give them another dime.

What kind of car do you get for 10k. Can’t be that flash.

My old man is a degen gambler and alco. If he knew the rush of shorting stocks he would be all over it. But he doesn’t even have a high school diploma and sucks at math and that is why he sucks on the gambling.

He’s not a bad guy. But I understand that when he’s in a box, there won’t be anything left for me. Prepare now my friend. You aren’t part of some dynasty. Just the cycle of breeders. If you were gonna make it it would have happend by now.

Not just the Philippines, its the poor person MO. Shit out as many kids as possible on the deluded assumption that one of them might make it and pay for the family and parents.

In reality you end up with 10 uneducated and underdeveloped useless meatbodies that go on to have 10 kids each themselves.

Google mark nowhereman on youtube, he does videos on poor in the phillipines, the REAL poor where they are close to dying of starvation. It sucks, but everyone involved is so hopeless. They just marry, reproduce, like a plague.

About 10 years ago my meth smoking mom asked me to lend her $5,000 to stop her from being evicted because her boyfriend was in jail and there was no one to pay the rent. I told her no and she went apeshit and called me every bad name in the book including “fucking Jew” etc. I knew that if I “lent” her that money I’d never see it again and she’d just get evicted at some later date. She got evicted. It tore me up at the time but looking back on it I made the right decision.

Never lend shitty people money, even if they’re your “family”

Part of that has to do with some boomers seeing other boomers get handed everything in life by their "greatest" generation parents and become spoiled shits and squander it all. So they figured that giving your children stuff was what spoiled kids, and decided not to do that. Of course, that's wrong, and it's more about how you raise your children, but parents stopped raising their children around WW1 when mandatory government schooling became a thing, and it only got worse with the explosion of advertising, leading to a double whammy of propaganda being forced non-stop onto normal people without the mitigating effect of internet access to unlimited information about everything.

My parents would be that kind of boomer I described above, except they decided to have a shitload of kids instead, so rather than just deprive a couple children, they gave everything they had to a lot of children (and still managed to squander a lot of money/wealth by being stupid boomers, but at least it wasn't malicious). It was a smart move by them since half their children are moderately successful and can support the rest plus the parents as time goes on. Personally I'm going to have a bunch of children too, but I'll have wealth to pass on thanks to crypto and wisdom to pass on thanks to the internet. We WILL be space mining magnates and we WILL buy our own planet somewhere down the line.
