When government replaced fathers with a paycheck, it destroyed the means of social security that had existed for centuries, extended families taking care of each other, without the need for government assistance.


Amen! Social security is no replacement for families that love one another!

I have tried to instill into my kids the concept of maximizing wealth for the extended family, and not just of their own individual household.

The goal is to have maximum wealth throughout the entire clan, so we will help the kids buying their first house, because in the long-run, it maximizes the overall wealth by lowering the amount of interest paid on the house. In return, my expectation is that our kids will assist us in our later years, besides by having live-in babysitters for their kids, it cuts down on those costs as well. More families need to start taking this approach, it is quickly becoming an economic necessity.
