>aging parents. Even if they die

When they die. May I suggest you make the most out of the time they have left and enjoy them while they're still alive. The pursuit of income is one of the main reasons separating families and you don't have that problem. You can learn whatever you want to because you don't have the constraints 99% of people have. You are alive and they are now. Cherish these moments for they are never coming back. Ever.

I'm not being patronizing and I'm doing a whole lot of projecting here. I wish I knew my parents better. They are still alive, but I wish I had spent more time with them. Something I am trying to correct.
