[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know people (30 plus) whose parents are paying for their down payment, co signing mortgages, paying for their grandkids braces, daycare, vacations, ivf, co signing on cars etc. a lot of these people would never admit to how much parental help they are getting despite having “good” jobs. [/quote] From my parents we got $10000 towards the house down payment and they put around $500 per year per child in my children's 529s. My ILs gave us $1000 at the wedding and not a dollar since that. Just yesterday my parents said that after meeting with a financial advisor they want to give us more money to avoid taxes. They informed me that the first gift will be for a certain home improvement they want me to have, and they have certain stipulations for the work that will be done! I said PLEASE just put the money in the kids' education funds but they don't want to do this for some reason. [/quote]
