[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every kid gets $20k for wedding and 20k toward down payment. I encourage them to put it all toward down payment. [/quote] 20k is 1995 prices for a wedding. 20k is a rounding error on a downpayment [/quote] Is that true? How much does a wedding cost? I had earmarked $25k for each kid and thought that sounded like plenty.[/quote] That’s a great amount to chip in. But think of this. I went to a 25k engagement party in 1991. A band alone (you have to feed them and roadies) could be $20,000. Now weddings include cocktail party night before, day of shuttle busses to church, reception, breakfast buffet morning after, gifts wedding party, flowers, limo, dj, band, and wedding itself well $250 a plate if fancy. I got married in 1998 and watched every Nickel and paid ourselves and kept wedding small 110 people and did say wedding and it cost 20k. But that included wedding dress. [/quote]
