[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They may learn that their salary does not support living in a high COL area. Something needs to change. It helps if they understand this sooner rather than later (because parents helped supplement their living expenses)[/quote]

My friends who moved to NYC after college crammed in small apartments to save money.  I had 2 friends split a studio apartment, by putting up a partition.  No one got their own apartment- all saved money by having roommates.

Many in Gen Z feel entitled to their own 1BR apartment.  It's just not realistic.  I've noticed that most of the new college dorms being built are single bedrooms.  Kids need to share rooms and learn how to compromise with a roommate.  It's a good life skill, and makes it easier to share an apartment after college.

I cannot imagine sharing a bedroom after college (unless it's a SO).  Except maybe in NYC...you are 22+yo, I get sharing an apartment (2 in a 2 bedroom), but cannot imagine living with 4 in a 2 bedroom[/quote]
