I’ve seen clip of that financial advice show “The Ramsey show” on YouTube and the things that old man say are shocking to me. According to him I shouldn’t give a single cent to my parents… That’s so against my culture. I would be seen as downright evil if I do that.

Hell I’m unemployed for like a year by now and still sent 200 euro a few months ago to my father that still lives in my home country that I haven’t seen in 17 years.

Are you really Americans like that? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t see it as cold hearted but I see it as unnatural, and I’M a “socialess” cold person in essence.

    Yeah, thats how it is in Germany, although they may not have a house, they will most of the time get enough pensions to afford their daily lives.

    I am an adult, but my mother would rather give me money than the other way around, but my parents are also upper middle class.

    But if my parents ever needed money to survive I would support them, its just unlikely to happen.
