That’s very nice of you, I’m not sure I want to set any aside for my old man. I tried explaining to him why he might need it and how it’s the best performing asset, but all I get is resistance, ridiculed and laughed at so I stopped bringing it up.

He wasn’t around when I was a kid, but he was always supportive and never ridiculed me, in that I am thankful. Tangentially, on the difference between nice and kind; scammers are nice, they are not kind. Nice is superficial, meant to make people feel good regardless of one’s true intention. Kindness is caring for someone regardless of making them feel good.
