[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of you are too entitled to see the contradiction between "My parents should not only help me through college, they should also help me in my 20s with rent/car/down payment/wedding." and "Mom and dad don't have any retirement savings, that's their fault so why should I help them out?"[/quote] Retirement is a luxury, just like cars, houses, and weddings. It shouldn't be a given. It should be earned. If you can save up enough to retire on your own, then great, but expecting someone else to make sacrifices so that you can ample fun and free time is wrong. I don't see why an adult child should sacrifice their occasional bit of free time so that their parents can have nothing but free time.[/quote]
