[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Better off than my parents, but not better off than my ILs. [/quote] +1 A drastic difference between the 2 families. Mom was divorced twice, and married a blue collar guy for the 3rd trip down the altar. They are 70+ and retired and are still paying their mortgage. FIL was a C-level exec at a major corporation and retired on a golden parachute. They've been extremely generous with 529 & private school funding, house downpayment, plus other gifting. OP, I wish I'd had someone set me straight about salary expectations for my major. I didn't get any career guidance from my parents or teachers. I do OK in marketing, but if I'd known what a law degree could mean, I may have borrowed to attend law school.[/quote]
