Video Overview
The couple has three children, and both sets of parents are over 60 with most of their money uninvested. The writer asks about mortgaging the parents' homes, selling the husband's Google shares, and investing side-business income. The speaker's boundary is that a parent's home should not carry market risk unless the adult children can repay the debt. He then models how much of NT$3 million might remain after reserving 15 years of parental living costs and discusses ETF mixes for the couple's own roughly NT$2.5 million. The figures and allocations are case-specific illustrations.
