I have this old school way of thinking.
that is parent raise me up from baby till now, and it is my duty to take care of them when they grow old.
give them allowances so that they have money to eat and buy things.
Be with them as many times as possible.
Parents wants nothing, they only want children to be around them, they already happy.
so, parent raise me , in return I take care of them when they old.

No. Was in horny mode then and my bachelor pad was perfect to fulfil my fetishes and horny dreams.
Women dig an independent guy more than anything.
I had then gfs stay over but it was my house
You had a high paying job in your 20s?

fillial piety got nothing to do with that. even if u stay with parents but everyday u buy nice food or buy things for them.. bring them go holiday.. hire maid to help them... spend time with them...... ok mah.

doesnt matter rich or poor.


most parents actually hope to always see their children. so spending more time with them is already piety

honestly doesnt matter whether the purpose is to make extra income (not talking about gravity or anybody here) or to leech or really to take care of parents

its other peoples daiji

at the end of the day if the parents are well taken of, everyone gets value out of it, its a win

no need edmw to gatekeep what is filial or not nor is their worthless opinion required

Some might be considered themselves 'lucky' when their parents pass on early and thus getting sour to get at peeps whose parents are still around.

Tell us, TS. How much is your net worth now?

Yup. Agree, yup parent well taken care of is the impt thing.

But buy to profit for passive income is irritating. Cause they are also reason why flat prices are increasing

No reason to move out. People like TS think people move out cos they want independence. Only sinkies too rich then move out. Other countries, people move out not because they want to but their area no decent jobs, need to move out to make a living, even overseas. Given a choice, they will all stsy with parents or near them.

For the working class newly married couples, using this excuse to stay in their parents house is a calculated move.

Most would buy a condo unit and rent it out. They may or may not give a portion of the rental income to their parents as household expenses.

After all, they will stand to inherit their parents house in future.
