Most of the asian household would probably think this way before. If I am on his shoes I would probably choose to stay silent since I am not that confident on what to come on the next generations, but for sure it will surely revolve in modern technology related to crypto and blockchain. Even if most of the elders nowadays deny that fact, it is argueably true that nowadays we are more inclined to technology that is not commonly welcome on most older generations.
I am also somehow on this similar situation in which most of my aunts and other family members who are professionals are pressuring me to not only follow their footsteps but to surpass them in terms of position and wealth, but the downside is that they want me to follow whatever they say
it's hard to do whatever other people say in order to take the same path as them, whereas nowadays it's a different era from the era they were triumphant in the past. the current era of technology demands that we keep up with the current developments. what you can do is find your own way to achieve success, and take something that can be used as a guide from parents for our walking base, at least the grid to achieve success will still be done, while the path is different because of the demands of technological developments
