I've seen clip of that financial advice show "The Ramsey show" on YouTube and the things that old man say are shocking to me. According to him I shouldn't give a single cent to my parents... That's so against my culture. I would be seen as downright evil if I do that.
Hell I'm unemployed for like a year by now and still sent 200 euro a few months ago to my father that still lives in my home country that I haven't seen in 17 years.
Are you really Americans like that? Don't get me wrong, I don't see it as cold hearted but I see it as unnatural, and I'M a "socialess" cold person in essence.

No, not really.
The answer will always be no to any general question like this. It's not like the U.S. is a monolith. It's a culturally, racially, and geographically diverse collection of 350 million people.
Grab 10 random people and the chances of all of them agreeing on almost any subject is near zero.
But in general, rhs majority of us wouldn't agree with this sentiment.
