日本一名50歲男子啃老長達25年,不僅生活費全由父母埋單,連賓士、勞力士也靠父母出錢,還曾爽喊「只要有錢,什麼都能買得到,人生太爽了!」未料81歲母親過世、父親因重度失智入住照護機構,金援瞬間斷炊。他此時查看父親存摺,才發現存款已剩不到1000萬日圓(約台幣200萬),若照過去花錢速度,不到3年恐全部耗光,讓他崩潰直呼:「我的人生完了。」

日媒報導,近藤康夫(化名)的男子今年50歲,父親曾任大型企業高階主管,自幼家境優渥。他大學畢業後一度就業,卻因職場人際關係,在20多歲後半離職,此後約四分之一世紀沒有固定工作,長期與父母同住,靠父母給零用錢生活。

近藤平時睡到中午才起床,還會向80多歲的母親索取數萬日圓,支付汽油及餐飲等開銷,包括賓士的車檢、汽車保險、手機費及影音平台訂閱費等,也都由父母負擔。

他不僅開著賓士到咖啡店,還把方向盤與手上的勞力士一起拍照上傳社群網站,以「自由投資人」自居。面對父母對未來的擔憂,他甚至聲稱,與其為幾百萬日圓年薪低頭工作,不如守住父母資產更有效率。

父母每月合計約有28萬日圓(約台幣5.6萬)年金,大部分被兒子拿去當生活開銷。為了支撐他的生活,父母每月還要從積蓄中拿出近20萬日圓(約台幣4萬)。看著老本不斷縮水,兩老曾無奈感嘆,不知道究竟是哪裡把兒子教錯了,卻始終狠不下心停止金援。

直到81歲母親過世,情況急轉直下。不久後,父親又罹患重度失智症,無法繼續在家生活,只能入住照護機構,父親的年金也全數用來支付機構費用,近藤長年仰賴的零用錢頓時消失。

他這才查看父親存摺,赫然發現存款已不到1000萬日圓。父親68歲退休後,13年多來每年約提領240萬日圓(約台幣48萬),累計已動用超過3000萬日圓(約台幣600萬)。若近藤仍維持過去的花錢速度,剩餘存款不到3年就可能耗盡。

如今除了父親的照護問題,50歲且長期沒有固定工作的近藤,也得開始面對自己的生活費與未來。過去靠父母資產支撐的生活一夕瓦解,他只能抱頭直呼:「我的人生已經完了。」

報導提醒,與父母同住本身並非問題,但若長期缺乏經濟自主能力,一旦父母過世、失能或需要長期照護,原先被父母資產掩蓋的財務風險,可能迅速浮上檯面。
