[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The OP clearly wants to do one more thing for his son before he's on his own. Just give your Internet Approval(tm) and be done with it. In terms of cars, I'd recommend buying a dependable and high-utility type of car. The OP's son will likely move around a few times over the next 10 years before settling down, so a car that will last and has some cargo capacity will be much appreciated. A Honda Fit is a good choice, as are similar vehicles from other manufacturers.[/quote] [b]If OP's son can't buy a car when he's a college graduate with a paying job, he's never going to be "on his own." [/b]Mommy and Daddy will next be giving him money for the down payment on a house and paying for his wedding and his kids' camps and vacations...[/quote] Because no one ever increases their earnings or pays off debt after several years on the job, which allows them to live on their own for the first time in their lives. I know a few people who lived with family so they could save enough money to afford their own place and launch themselves. You sound bitter, pp. [/quote] Bitter? This is why everyone thinks Millenials suck, and it's constantly written on this very board. Go to college, on parents' dime, graduate, get new car on parents' dime. When do they start working for their own wants and luxuries? [/quote]
