[quote=Anonymous]My parents paid for everything in college, but I was a D-1 athlete and not permitted to have a job. In high school, they would buy me school clothes and necessities, but any goodies or extras I wanted came out of my paycheck. I had to save up for my computer I would take to college. In law school, my grandpa paid my rent but I paid everything else. Truly out on my own at age 27. I'm 37 now and my mom still likes to throw me some money here and there. I think it makes her feel good so I don't mind. It's not often. She'll give me $200 to take on vacation (I'm not married BTW) or buy me things she thinks I'd like when she's out and about or on a trip, like chocolates or a pair of earrings just because. I appreciate her and I know I'm lucky. [/quote]
