Actually worked with a guy who read his retired parents the riot act after they returned from a two week trip. Complaining that with them enjoying their retirement they were spending HIS inheritance! Lost all respect for him after that.
I’ve done this with my kids, a little bit at a time when they needed it. Not so much that they’ll go crazy, but enough that they can do what needs to be done.
Used to be an RV bumper sticker that read We’re spending our children’s inheritance. Always liked that one. It is about even with the sign on a grave digger’s truck take your time. we can wait
“Ok, kid, you can have my old beer can collection. There’s a ‘Billy Beer’ can in there that might have been worth something if I hadn’t been really thirsty one day.”
The inheritance is legally NOT his until his parents die and IF he is in the will. My ex told mommy and daddy to spend their money before they die, just make sure there is burial expenses left. The money was THEIRS not his, so enjoy it while they are alive.

Sure. There’s an empty sixpack in the bed of the pickup in the front yard.

I’d give him a paper bag blown up, and say it was half of his inheritance.
