[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s helping her kids save a ridiculous amount of money…it tracks in terms of good financial behavior.[/quote] What actually happened is that she didn't prepare them to be in a place where they knew how to navigate saving money over time and moving up the job and property ladder over time (starting with renting with roommates, then moving to 1 bedroom apt, then buying a condo, for example...). I think parents who have ALL of their adult children living with then have taken the easy way out--they are not willing to take the mental energy to prepare the kids for certain aspects of adulthood. For them it easier to just continue their kids childhood.[/quote]
