[quote=Anonymous]I moved out at age 18 (in the early aughts) and was financially independent. I worked as a barista, a cocktail waitress, a receptionist etc. I put myself through school, which was slow-going because the FAFSA accounts for your parents income until you’re 26, and they were not supporting me. I had a chip on my shoulder about the struggle but overall I’m glad for the experience. I made it through school (twice), and outside of the crippling student loan debt am doing well: great marriage, great kids, great career, beautiful home and own a rental property. I do agree that young people today seem ill-equipped for the challenges of life. [/quote]
