If you look at buying financial security for your offspring as just another thing you can choose to buy...like maybe the guy next door buys a $60k boat and an $80k F-150 to pull it with, but I just float around on a pool noodle and drive my older truck and use the same capital to invest in my kids' future. How are you going to get a guy like me on board with wanting to claw my money back on my death?

FFS, I forgot how old I am for a bit. I'm actually 44 (not that it matters).
