I'm so happy my parents are financially stable. I may not get anything when they pass, but that's all right. I'm just glad they're doing okay. And I honestly have no way to support them on top of myself

I hope not too much of your parents are relying on Social Security for retirement. The current administration is making some bad rumblings about cuts.

I mean they're both 65 and still work, they always have, I have no doubt they have a good amount saved up, as they've always pushed me to do
