TOAK, The Thread of All Knowledge Part X
Mick, years ago, I'd tell my parents, Dad, you need a new truck or car or whatever. They'd always say " No we don't want to spend the money, this way we can leave something to you"... I'd always tell them , " You don't have enough to make a big difference in my life, I'd rather see you spend it all and enjoy it......it's YOUR money not mine. Besides, if you die tomorrow, I'll just buy a new Porsche with the money".....that usually convinced them to spend it.

Al, I tell my Pop the same thing. He set aside some $$ for my kids after Mom died. Now that he has property that needs to be cleared and maintained I told him I'd rather he use that money to get the equipment and supplies he needs than for him to work himself to death doing it the cheap and hard way
