[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are way too focused on income. Probably a big reason some of those people have lower paying jobs (hopefully that they like!) is because they have generational wealth that they calculate into their job decisions. Generational wealth is why I'm able to be a SAHM right now without stressing about potentially taking a pay cut when I go back. If parents are helping kids with houses, it's probably not a one-time gift thing, it's just estate planning. They may not even have a traditional mortgage, the house may be owned by a family trust or other entity. The house isn't "above their means" just because it doesn't match their W2. Their means include other income including generational transfers and probably also investment income. [/quote]
