‘They already helped us buy our house, one that we otherwise would not have been able to afford.’
My in-laws recently approached my wife and I about giving us our inheritance now, rather than later. They would prefer to see us spend the money now.
If I am lucky enough to be in a situation where I have a large sum of money, I will certainly leave them some, but I have no desire to leave it all to them, or provide for them when they are grown adults. I believe one gets more enjoyment out of working for one’s own things. Am I over-thinking this and being selfish by saying I do not want their money? They already helped us buy our house, one that we otherwise would not have been able to afford. My wife and I both have good incomes and we have no debt other than our mortgage.
