Millennials (34 years old) complain: “My parents are wasting my inheritance”
Today 22 March 2024 | 11:59
A 34-year-old British millennial is angry at baby boomer parents, complaining that the two, who are in their late 60s, have been enjoying luxury trips since their retirement. The retired couple has the slogan „YOLO” (You Only Live Once) as their attitude towards life, which young people really don't like.
The person, who wishes to remain anonymous, feared his parents would spend the money he hoped he would one day inherit. “My inheritance will be used because of her dream vacation,” she complains „daily Mail”. My inheritance is currently being drunk through a straw in a coconut in the Caribbean. There will be very little left.” Parents are selfish because they spend their money on themselves.

“The problem is that it didn't stop at just one or two vacations. It didn't even stop at three or four,” the anonymous person said, his cell phone full of vacation photos. “They rode their motorcycles for two weeks through Thailand, visiting bars, restaurants, beaches, Like a backpacker in his twenties.” Father suddenly became interested in Tokyo's street markets. „Trips to Japan aren't cheap, I know that. However, he did reserve some of them.
After all, a millennial who owns an expensive apartment knows that they are dependent on the financial support of their parents. There is clearly concern here that the living situation may change.
Apparently not an isolated case: like ” Voxday.net “Reports, citing a study by Moneyfarm, indicate that two in five adult children have their blood boiling at the thought of their parents spending their inheritance on luxury vacations.

Many German vacationers will return to Bella Italia in 2024. In order not to attract negative attention from local residents, they should refrain from certain behaviors.
Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for tourists to display bad manners while on vacation. Sometimes it gets to the point that the local government feels forced to take action against them: an example of this is banning entry to geisha areas in the Japanese city of Kyoto after tourists behaved disrespectfully towards the artists. In a small Japanese town near Mount Fuji, a popular photo of vacationers is obscured with privacy gauze because they leave a lot of trash behind and block paths. In Venice, fines are imposed for not wearing a shirt and swimming in the canals because many holidaymakers do not follow the rules.

Five tips to behave like an ideal tourist in Italy
In Italy, people are accustomed to tourists, but this does not mean that vacationers can afford anything. If you want to show your appreciation or simply want to avoid some mistakes, you can follow the etiquette below Prebly Catch:
- Don’t take holiday selfies in inappropriate places: Monuments and memorials are some of the most visited tourist attractions – but it’s not always appropriate to stand in front of them for a holiday photo. Pay attention to information panels explaining the context of the memorial to determine appropriate behavior.
- No cappuccino in the afternoon: In Italy, after midday is common coffee – Any espresso – I drank. If you order a cappuccino, you are fooling yourself and revealing yourself as a tourist – and someone who has not studied Italian coffee culture.
- Learn basic vocabulary: Locals enjoy when tourists know at least the most important terms in their language. For example Ciao As a greeting or farewell beauty To express gratitude.
- Appreciation of food culture: For many Italians, it is terrifying to see vacationers cutting spaghetti or cutting pizza into small pieces with a knife and fork. Spaghetti is rolled around the edge of the plate using a fork – no spoon – and pizza is traditionally eaten by hand.
- Avoid noise: In Italy there is usually a quiet period between 1pm and 3pm. She calls herself Reposo. During this period, tourists should avoid loud disturbances and act considerately.

Israel begins evacuating Rafah before military action

The Israeli army begins evacuating the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip. The army calls on residents of the eastern part of the city, located on the border with Egypt, to go to Al-Mawasi camp on the Mediterranean Sea, a few kilometers north. Military action is expected.
The Israeli army began evacuating the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, in preparation for an expected military operation. The army called on residents of the eastern part of the city, located on the border with Egypt, to go to Al-Mawasi camp on the Mediterranean Sea, a few kilometers north.
Indirect negotiations between Israel and the Islamic terrorist Hamas movement in Cairo regarding a new ceasefire in the Gaza war and the release of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners had previously remained unsuccessful. Israel wants to use the military operation in Rafah to destroy the remaining brigades of the Islamic terrorist organization Hamas. There are also suspected hostages in the city on the border with Egypt.
Israel’s allies have been warning urgently for months against launching such an attack in Rafah because hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians are gathering there. However, Israel believes that the operation is necessary to ensure the destruction of Hamas’ combat capabilities. Otherwise, it could regain its power after the war ends.
The border crossing is closed
Members of Hamas’ military wing fired rockets at Israel’s Kerem Shalom border crossing on Sunday, killing three Israeli soldiers. Kerem Shalom is considered the main border crossing for delivering aid from Israel to the Gaza Strip. The army temporarily closed the crossing to humanitarian transport after the missile attack. According to his statements, the army then bombed the place in the Gaza Strip near the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, from which the attack was launched.
Before the combat operations in Rafah, Israel said that it wanted to evacuate the city first. This is expected to take several weeks. Israel said that Hamas prepared its fighters in Rafah to deploy against Israel and provided them with supplies and weapons. According to media reports, the number of hostage guards has also been increased.
Ground attack in stages
According to information received from the Wall Street Journal, Israel wants to carry out its ground attack in Rafah in stages. The newspaper wrote about two to three weeks of evacuation and six weeks of attack. Senior Israeli intelligence and military officials met in Cairo last month, among others, with the head of Egyptian intelligence to discuss Israel’s planned deployment of its army in Rafah.
The head of the Egyptian Information Service, Diaa Rashwan, had previously stated that there were no discussions with Israel about its possible military attack in Rafah. Egypt strongly rejects plans for such an attack and has made this position clear several times. The city to the south is the only city on the enclosed coastal strip that remains relatively intact.
Egypt fears, among other things, that the Israeli deployment in Rafah will lead to a rush of Palestinians across the border. The border crossing from the Gaza Strip to Egypt is located in Rafah, and is also an important gateway for the delivery of humanitarian aid to the closed coastal enclave. Intense fighting in Rafah may further complicate deliveries of food, medicine and fuel.

People in Georgia have been protesting against a government law for weeks. One expert suspects Russian influence behind the project.
Tbilisi – In recent days, Georgia has witnessed huge demonstrations against the law planned by the government. The law stipulates that NGOs that receive more than 20 percent of their funds from abroad must identify the source of the funds and register with the authorities. According to one expert, the Kremlin may be behind the proposed law in Georgia.
Protests in Georgia: Experts suspect the Kremlin is behind the law
Thousands of people protested against the law in Georgia on Friday (May 3) with slogans such as “No to the Russian government” or “We will not tire.” The bill was approved on second reading on Wednesday (May 1). But for weeks, people have taken to the streets and confronted police, who have responded to the demonstrations with tear gas, water cannons and rubber bullets.
Critics accuse Georgia’s Russia-allied government of modeling the law on Russia’s „proxy law.” “In terms of internal politics, there is actually no explanation for this,” Stefan Mallerius, representative of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Tbilisi, says in ZDF magazine today. The Georgian government withdrew the “Russian law,” as some called it, in March 2023 after massive protests. For Mallerius, the fact that it will now come into force comes “suddenly.”
Georgia: Law through „foreign interference”
The head of the regional program in the South Caucasus suspects „interference from abroad, specifically from Russia.” “There has to be a connection from the Kremlin or the Kremlin region,” he says. Malerios suspects that Georgian oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili, who is considered the country’s unofficial decision-maker, is behind the law. Malerius continues to speculate, saying, “He was told or made clear that he had to introduce this law now.” Ivanishvili was the initiator of the inter-party alliance and today’s ruling party, the Georgian Dream.
The law still needs Parliament’s approval on a third reading. This is scheduled to be done within two weeks. Pro-European President Salome Zurabishvili is expected to veto the measure. But pro-government representatives in parliament have a sufficient majority to override the president’s veto. The ruling party aims for the law to enter into force in mid-May. Georgia has been an official candidate for European Union membership since last December. Green Party politician Anton Hofreiter sees Georgia’s accession as being at risk from the law. (FCA/AFP)
