I assume not, based off the shabby truck they had, lack of college education, and appearance of them both.

Keep thinking your bubble will save you from harm. Fool

They own a small business, and could actually be quite successful and wealthy in a millionaire next door way.

"The Laundries own Juicer Services, a company started in 2017 that sells and services commercial juicing equipment." They run the business out of their house.

I don’t think that’s true. As someone who knows Sarasota County quite well, North Port is about as middle class as you can get.

LOL DCUMer sleuths trying to claim everyone is Millionaire Next Door.

Regardless a bubble of UMC doesn't save you from crazy young men. If you just want to talk Florida, let's look at Stoneman Doughlas High School. 17 kids died in a mass shooting.

The average income for Parkland, FL is $136,000+

Parkland is also the second wealthiest city in Florida.

So how did their bubble protect them?

They're all from Long Island and went to HS there. His parents must have relocated to FL at some point after they graduated from HS. Did either attend college anywhere?

My richest family member didn't attend college. It's really not relevant here though if they did or did not.

Kids? They were 22 and 23. Exactly how do you propose we stop them from doing anything?

How do we all have good heads on our shoulders? It must be something to do with parenting. My parents and my inlaws collectively raised 5 children to be fully self sufficient immediately after college and not date/marry losers. That can’t be all luck.

Sure it can. I know multiple families in which two kids are successful and a third or fourth, as you put it, dates and marries losers. All sorts of birth orders. Personally I feel grateful not to have fallen in love with an abusive asshole. Not everyone is so lucky or has the strength to free themselves. Especially at 22.

Very sad situation here all around. But yeah, I agree with this:

I have several extended family members (cousins) who think they're going to be a YouTube influencer, Instagram celebrity, etc. It's a super f**ked up plan for one's life and is bound to lead to tragedy, even if not as dramatic as this one.

Come on parents. We have to do better at keeping these social media apps away from kids when they are at their most vulnerable young pre-teen ages and point them in a real direction so they actually do something with their life.

Some of it is luck. A lot of it is smart choices and doses of reality from parents. For starters, not graduating college was not an option. Living in the basement for more than a transitional month or two was not an option.

No one is attacking people who don't attend college or saying people who don't attend college can't be "rich." It's relevant to their backgrounds. Obviously, it's not relevant to his guilt.

Agree. As much as I loathe Trump, I wish he was successful in getting TokTok banned.

Yup came here to post that. “I can still hear her voice,” Hulls said. Hulls pictures the sobbing 22yr-old sitting in the back of the cruiser.
“I was probably more candid with her than I should've been,” Hulls recalls, warning Petito that her and Laundrie’s relationship had the markings of a “toxic” one. I was imploring with her to reevaluate the relationship, asking her if she was happy in the relationship w/him, and basically saying this was an opportunity for her to find another path, to make a change in her life.”

I'm glad Hull had the kindness to try to reach Gabby about the relationship. Maybe Gabby was thinking about it, but it would have saved her life if she had immediately acted on it. Is this conversation posted somewhere?

You really think graduating from college determines whether women fall prey to abusers and murderers?

It should be on Hull's body cam footage, but I haven't seen that posted.

I wish the police would have had notice of the 2nd witness report, as that surely would have made a difference in the outcome of that stop. Heck, even if she had been cited or arrested, her parents likely would have had to ntervene.

DP. Obviously not, but it can make one more likely to be self sufficient.

Neither riches nor a college education is going to protect you from this sort of thing. You people need to go back to college to pick up critical thinking skills you missed in the first go round.

Well, financial self-sufficiency can factor into whether someone feels able to leave an abuser, so there's that.

You think good parenting saves teens/YA from mental illness? LUCK
