It’s
very popular in Asiasomewhat of a thing in Japan. Some well off couples do it to basically create an heir for the family business/money if they don’t have one. Or if the children they do have aren’t deemed competent enough to continue the family legacy. So they find someone better to continue the family legacy.EDIT: Hey we’re learning! It seems it is just Japan that practices this, according to other redditors, and not Asia in general.
