>TFW my parents don't even own a house

Feels bad knowing there are people my age or younger than me who'll get a million dollars when their parents die while I'll probably end up footing the bill for their funeral. I guess real estate is the only worthwhile investment

henlo. i'll inherit 2 houses and one piece of land, and a bunch of money too when my parents die. even if i don't work or gain assets i'm already comfy for life. kek. and my parents are good we have a good relationship. i help them they help me. pretty cool. needless to say I didn't move out of the house and stacked bitcoin. now my networth is 600k at 33 years old. i still didn't move out lmao. i like the idea of the generational family home. my peers who moved out are all stuck with a 30 year mortgage debtcontract to pay off their 300k house (euros) meanwhile i can already buy 2 houses. I have been travelling the past 2 years too. LMAO.

and its all thanks to my dad who didn't kick me out at any time. so i could dump all my money into bitcoin. thanks dad! and mum!

My parents house is valued €1.2 million, I am also an only child.
But I don't want my parents to die, I want them to live a long and happy life so that money isn't really relevant to me. Maybe I'll get it when I'm 50 or 60, who knows?
My parents are also house poor, their house is paid off but they barely own any assets other than real estate and have maybe 100k in the bank and only a few years left to retirement where they will earn much less than they do now.

He was like 5, maybe 6 siblings. If you're an only child, you're lucky you're getting everything but getting $300k isn't bad either

I just need a briefcase with $250,000 in it to pay off this house. Or, one 500x shitcoin that moons. Shitcoin route seems more likely at this point

My parents signed up for balloon payments, didn't pay their 1099 taxes, filed bankruptcy, but also sold their home at a profit? They have no credit score in their 60s. They own nothing.

My parent bought a $400k house on the water in 2015, it's now valued at $1.2 million, I'm glad for them because I inherited my grandmothers house and don't need to whine about their success.

only child here, parents got lucky these last 5 years (job promotions) and bought 3 apartments (two are about 120m2 and one is 160m2), we already owned one in a family building but its legally complicated so i dont even count it, they put the 160m2 is my name so I am pretty comfy, only thing is that i dont live in the country where everything is and i dont pocket anything from my house because the deal was that they rent the other two and live in mine, one day i will have an income of 4000 euros a month without doing a single thing but i hope that day never comes because i love my parents and dont want them to die, i feel very bad for you anon
