Land, houses, knowledge. This is generational wealth. Show me a Boomer who used all their wisdom to help their kids and I'll show you the very rare exception to the rule.
What, you want them to give you the house they are living in before they are done with it? And I'm sorry you had such shitty parents they didn't try to raise you up right with "all their wisdom" but the VAST majority of parents do the best they know how for their kids - biology demands it. What life skills and good habits do your boomer parents have that they didn't try to instill in you?
you clearly don't know how inheritance and reverse mortgages work.
No, I do, but if my parents run out of savings before they die and they need to reverse mortgage their home to pay for living or medical expenses before they die, there is no way I'm going to blame THEM for not leaving me anything. How fucking entitled are you to think that's required? Conversely, how much of your own generated wealth are YOU passing on to your children instead of using it to raise them?
