Did anyone else’s parents just never tell them anything regarding financial wellbeing or credit? I learned about building credit from a stranger at work

I know very little about finances and stuff and I’ve been trying to get my parents to teach me but they’ve been half assing it to the point i get annoyed and just continue to let them handle it even tho i wanna start being more independent its such an annoying vicious cycle

my parents never told me anything about how to actually be an adult and then they had the nerve to pass away in my early 20s so i have to learn everything the hard way.
