[quote=Anonymous]Not really. DH and I bought our first home - $180K in Falls Church in 1996 when we were 24. I think my parents gave us $5000 in savings bonds when we got married but they weren't worth all that as we got married sooner than my mother thought (22). DH was a GS-7 and worked 20 hours of overtime each week. I was a public school teacher. We saved, saved, and saved. We had a one bedroom apartment and DH drove a car he bought for $1000. My parents gave me a CHevy senior year in college. Neither of us had students loans. DH went to college on a government science scholarship. My parents saved for my tuition and paid it in full.
