“Is that hundred grand a gift… or a loan?”
Neither, it’s an obligation. You don’t get to choose whether or not to provide for your children as you would a gift, nor can you expect a “return” on your “investment”.
All true. But it’s in response to Calvin talking about electing a new dad, which also isn’t a realistic view of things
yeah, I know. I just get pissed off whenever I hear a parent talking like this
…and in 2024 it’s pushing $500k for 18 years.
Dad, if it was a loan, how the living fuck could that even be paid back in these circumstances?
Signed,
Adult Calvin
P.S. This is why you don’t have grandkids, Dad.
Yeah but I make 100% more money now than I did in 1987.
Unfortunately the math on that would suggest you’re still 300% behind, since 500k is a 400% increase of 100k.
Seriously, like come on dad, it’s not like I ever asked to be born!
