Inheritance Money and Fools
2 months ago
General
Throughout my life I have to witness furries spend their inheritance money on furry luxuries and other luxuries whilst many others like myself have to work to earn those luxuries with every drop of sweat and blood of our existence. It's a good thing many furs I know of judge others on how they manage their finances, especially in America. It doesn't sit right with me when I encounter a furry who blows their inheritance on furry accessories and an old truck to get around America for furcons without working for them.
I give my all because that's the only way I know in achieving my goals and furry dreams. Many furs I've interacted, especially those who partake in dance comps, say the same thing. Parents watching their children dance in fursuit bring them joy because they see their children entertain and inspire the world.
The life of your family members are worth more than inheritance money. I just cannot comprehend this part of reality that I have interacted with furries who shamelessly spend their inheritance money on their indulgences without a care. If someone asks them if they feel bad that their loved ones died, they'll just shrug it off.
This isn't how I understood life as a furry. I may come off as extremely judgemental at first, but you don't buy pre-made cheap fursuits, furcon tickets, and other luxuries with inheritance money. From what I understood, inheritance money is not just for your health as well as for your needs and savings, but also to use the money to say invest in stocks to pass down to your next of kin, ideally your children, with knowledge on financial management to them.
Throughout my life, I only know that if you want to have fun as a furry, you have to work for it. If you are worried that you may look stupid with a fursuit you love in front of your parents, at least do your best to look good in it so they will understand. But most importantly is teaching financial and resource management to children. Because as they often say in America with great emphasis, time is money.

It feels more rewarding that I work hard for my shit, so that pretty much holds true.

It really does. It feels worthwhile and thoughtful.

inheritance tends to always have explosive results if you have quite a few brothers and sisters, i have lost count on familys ripping themselves apart over what was left behind.

That's just sad. I always imagined inheritance goes to the oldest next-of-kin because they have more experience in handling their finances. I feel bothered that throughout my life, I have to witness financially illiterate people abuse their inheritance on things I'd work for. If more people think of money as time and experience, they would see money differently and not just cash to buy whatever they want to live beyond their means.
