Sounds like some of the folks that post on this site.
Actually, my dad never would share the details (although I knew generally) of his finances with me (only surviving child) other than to tell me I was POD on all his accounts. I didn't know the details of his finances until he passed away in his mid 90's. The details were not much of a problem to figure out. (paper work was "everywhere") I found "lot's" of paper bank statements that went back into the 80's and were up to date until the month he passed away. Some paper work/receipts went back into the 50's.
I don't tell my DD much either. Like father like son, I guess.
In this the OP's Dad whet from willingly sharing control to worrying he was getting ripped off. That's a big red flag and exactly how things started when my MIL was diagnosed with Alzheimer's..
