Asians in San Fran will come together to buy newly wed couples a house.
Boomer Whites in America will come together to watch you to struggle to find a house in a decent location and then leave for a month vacation in Europe.
The costum was that the one who inherits the farm ( this was decided well before the parents die ) has to care for his parents untill they die, and if there are unmarried siblings, they can stay too and help around the farm.
When someone got married and moved out, people in town helped build a house with them. The young men learned by working with adult and elder men.
My grandparent's generation was the last when this was still common, but by the time they were adults most people in town were not farmer anymore.

This is basically rhe situation I find myself in. My in laws just fucked my wife over and sold their neatly million dollar house to move away instead of helping us out with their grandson despite us asking over and over for some help. They offered to send an old iPad though.
They don't run a business though. He's just a mid level government paper pusher so I'm not sure what skills he could even share with her.

I've been trying hard to overcome my bitterness regarding the situation.
I am tired of hearing people make excuses for this sort of, what I consider, betrayal. But it's so normal most people just excuse it and tell you to get over it

Dude are you me? I was in almost the exact same situation. Parents live 1700 miles away. I start having kids, ask for help since my wife and I both have to work and daycare is fucking $1200/mo per kid (y'know since they basically stopped doing anything for me when I turned 18 and was pushed out of the house with nothing). Dad refuses to transfer somewhere closer (even with ample opportunities with his govt job), but my mom comes out and stays with us and helps watch the kids so I'm not pissing away money for daycare and can try to thrive.
I end up doing what my dad neglected to do: buy a large piece of land and start developing it for my kids so we can build generational wealth. My mom wants me to build her a house if they pay for materials- yep I sure will! But my fucking asshole dad is adamantly against it because I refuse to sign ANY ownership over to him (because the entire property is going into a trust... to build generational wealth, for our descendants, just like in OPs video). He bitches and whines because my mom is helping us and isn't in niggerville with him across the country. He sent me a whiny text message and I essentially said, fine, you're uninvited, no need to worry about it anymore. If we have an extra room or whatever, they're welcome to stay, but I'm not interested in taking any investment he wants to do. When society collapses and he's busy fending off and being overrun by feral niggers from his suburban shit hole, I'll be comfortably sitting in the woods with my family and my few neighbors.
It's absolutely the most selfish thing I've ever seen. No matter how I explain to him that I am not benefiting from this other than being able to provide a solid foundation for his grandchildren to get ahead in this kiked system, he is totally against investing anything in it unless he gets some sort of ownership to it. Not gonna happen. If he wanted voting rights in how this compound would be ran, he should've started it 40 years ago, but he was too busy being a fucking boomer faggot.

My in laws are even worse. They lived 30 minutes away before selling and just up and left to move halfway across the country when we have a 1 year old baby to live near nobody at all.
My parents refuse to leave their self imposed isolation and my mom prefers to take care of a bunch of mangey shelter animals instead of her grandkids.
My dad just does projects and watches fox news all day.

That's the struggle. It got better for me and I'm sure you will persevere as well. I played the wagecuck game for about 15 years before the stars aligned and I was able to buy my family land and build on it. Had to get a loan on the land but luckily had cash from selling our old house to build most of our new house with my own hands (still a work in progress and likely will be until I die). Make a game plan and get it rolling, don't let your worthless parents hold you up. Unapologetically ask for money from them if you need to and just demonstrate how much life sucks in a post-boomer world, just make sure you have your house in order (no addictions, working full time, etc) and they won't be able to turn you down. Luckily I've worked past that point by being self employed, but if I needed money tomorrow I would ask my parents for it, because this struggle is mostly their fault.

In the sleepy one-horse Karoo town where my nephew farms in South Africa, farmers have set up a private school for their children. They only attend school Mon - Thurs. Because on Fridays, the boys and girls are on their daddies' farms learning how to farm.
Thanks but there is no way he'd give up his 140 square km farm. He is off grid, own water supply (the best i've ever tasted), own meat supply (he farms sheep and goats). He is literally living the dream. I'm so proud of him.
We used to do this kind of stuff as a society. You either worked at the family business or you found an apprenticeship. This went the way of the dodo when we stopped giving a shit about our kids and each other, and more so due to the rise of factory mass production. It further declined by the time "work" became moving money around and importing cheap bullshit from overseas.
Now instead of the family business, you're indoctrinated to move to the city and work for some jew who mass produces most of his product in third world shit holes.
Currently, 70% of family businesses fail or are bought out. Most don't make it to the second generation due to incompetence and/or neglect from either the parents or the kids.

Its hard to compete with low wage Mexicans however some Whites refuse to trust them thankfully and Mexicans usually don't have the skill required for whole house renovations since they just learn one shitty skill
