Just Gave My Son 10 Million Won

I'm 30 years old, been at my job for 6 years making 32 million won a year

 

Combined household assets: 70 million won

 

My parents were against our marriage so I went ahead without their blessing

 

Didn't get a single won of support from them to start out

 

Recently got a pre-order on a 600 million won apartment and put down 40 million won as deposit

 

Need to save an additional 180 million won by 2030, so my wife and I gotta save over 4 million won a month lmaooo

 

After that it's leveraged loan life for the foreseeable future

 

Thinking about the future just makes me realize how broke I am and how everything feels impossible

 

My son was born in March and I started feeling like I couldn't give him anything decent

 

Talked it over with my wife and we immediately took out a 10 million won loan and gifted it to our son, bought S&P 500 ETF with it

 

Thinking of giving it to him as a gift when he turns 20

 

Starting from middle school, I'll show him this little seed money and let him

 

decide for himself whether to go to college, buy a car, invest, get his own place, or travel

 

and I'll respect his choice

 

Phew... gonna just keep grinding and do my best. Please root for me
