Why are my parents so stupid?
They have 0 financial intelligence. They gone through banktrupty twice and foreclosure once. They are stupid when it comes to money. My mothers mother recently died and they collected nearly half a million dollars, thankfully they invested with two reputable financial advisors, they bought a house and refinanced for a great rate. But they just spend money like idiots. We just moved into a modest house, built in 2000 fully landscaped, they want to redo the landscaping, so they feel like shelling out over $7,000 for a new landscape. Our garbage disposal got clogged, rather then attempting to fix it they decided to call a plumber at $50/hour; I went under the sink and fixed it in 10 minutes, and then cancelled the plumber. We have a piano that we have been storing at a friends house for the past few years and my mom would like it for sentimental reasons, I said, I can move it for $50. No they insisted, we are having a piano mover to take care of it for $150, why? because they are insured.

Cvass20: Thanks for your advice, I used it and took the money. Do you have a truck to take the bodies out to the woods?

My parents aren't like that. I think I know what you mean though. All you have to go is say..."Hey...in the year 2020 I will pay more in taxes then you will make in your life" By the way I am planning in killing my parents to get their money. If you help me we can split it.

YES I DO HAVE A TRUCK, PERFECT.

Not everyone is responsible with money, Hey look at the bright side your parents are not as bad as the President with government spending.

It sounds like financial wizardry is just not their thing. I can really relate to how frustrating and challenging it is for you, though. Funny thing about parents, you can't change 'em. It took me a while to realize that the only way to get along with mine was to accept their crazy quirks and offer no advice. Parents just don't want it from their kids. I try to be a support, help them when I can, and let them make their own goofy decisions. They probably say the same thing about me. :)

It is amazing that you turned out to have financial sense.


naina_smile1987
maybe coz their mind has developed tht way......but dont worry u r intelligent enough to see the difference between the right n the wrong way to spend money
Learn from ur parents mistakes.......it will surely teach u loads of things

You know what, they are lucky they have a kid with a good head on his or her shoulders when it comes to finances. Unfortunately, they are among many adults who are no good with finances and who don't take them seriously.

My mom's the same day. She hasn't worked for anyone but her self, so has no retirement nor social security. She'll be 50 in a couple months.

Some parents are just perpetual children.

Some people just aren't good with money. Maybe you should express your concerns to your parents, but DO NOT tell them they are stupid. Just tell them you are really concerned this time because if they watch they do they good live a great life.

People who has money dont appreciate it they have so much they dont no what to do with it, you sound as if you have a good head on your shoulder why dont they let you take care of the money and when they are older they will have money to live on.

They are not stupid just getting carried away with keeping up with the Jones. Learn from them and don't let the cycle repeat itself.

I am sure you are stressed out, however, don't even let it get to you. I am in the same situation with my 83 year old grandma and they will not change, sooooo.... sit back take a deep breath and hope that they ask for your help when they realize you gave up. if they still insist on blowing money, hey, let em blow it. worry about how you are gonna invest your own money. good luck....

I wish you were my kid. They don't make many with your level of concern and intelligence. Have you thought about going to the library and finding books which might help your parents to handle money more efficently? It would be best to take a subtle approach and leave a book or two lying around, and then say how much you enjoyed reading it. In this way, you can avoid getting your parents in a defensive mode.

NO OFFENSE YOUR GRANDMA MUST HAVE OF DROPPED THEM ON THEIR HEAD BUT I FEEL YOU BUT MY MOM IS NOT LIKE THAT.


stoney10162003
The best answer I can come up with is that they are not stupid, just careless with money. One reason is that if they both cam from affluent homes, or, where financially strapped as a young couple or came from poor families, they are like kids in a candy store. Another one may be that they would rather throw money at a problem that fix it, and have to "keep up with the Joneses" Good luck, I have a father in law that just throws money at things, and a sister in law who has to have the best of everything.


jacob_arzt
maybe they are stupid due to genetic reasons.
