"I still believe that parents need to be spoiled while they are still alive. I know to some people it may sound like I'm bragging but my aim is to motivate others to spoil their parents and make them happy while they are still here. We all know some people only get time to brag about their parents during funerals when policies are paid out. #imstaying."
The people of Mzansi agree
The comments show that Mzansi is in full support of Melusi's advice and many people say his parents raised him the right way and they must be proud.
Let's check out some of the comments:

In another story, Briefly News previously reported on a local man who has headed online to share snaps of the incredible improvements he's made to his elderly parents' home. While it's not clear if the young man simply made a few alterations or moved the family into a new home altogether, the results were definitely eye-catching.
Heading online, @Lebzit shared the good news.
"Some call it Black Tax. I call it Black Success," he captioned the inspirational post.
