[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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.

How embarrassing.[/quote]

If it embarrasses you, don't take the money.  It more seems like you are jealous.

It’s not jealousy to have a kid that is such a loser at 30+ that they need their parent’s money.  Why is it that idiots like you confuse pity with jealousy is baffling to me.

This from someone that has a sizable estate that we will transfer to our kids…but not because they need it just to give their future kids’ braces.

Also, if your kid has to take out a loan just buy a freaking car and at 30 needs you to co-sign for it…that’s f**cking embarrassing and you know that.[/quote]

Pity/jealousy whatever.  Not worth getting energized about.  My parents are wealthy and now after many years of struggling I am too.  I wish they didn't enjoy watching me suffer and would have extended some help.  I experienced hunger, lack of health care, etc due to a health problem. All I heard from them was "ill pray for you. I'm sorry you're going through that."  Financial help would have made me respect them. 
Once my medical problem was under control, i got a job and worked my way to 1%..I'm helping my kids in every way I can.  You just never know what the future holds.[/quote]
