[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think about this a lot. The odds all 3 of my kids (or even just 1 of them) achieve the success of DH and I is minuscule. We come from rural MC families so we have a value system aligned with hard work, good education, lots of hustle that I hope sinks in but we live in a huge house and take amazing vacations all the time. The best I can do is teach them about personal finance and being a good person. And to not count on us for money (though I bet we’ll be the grandparents paying for private school tuition like I read about all the time on these boards). [/quote] Not everyone wants a large house. Not everyone likes to travel. Not everyone strives for UMC. Why can’t they count on you for money or help? The biggest part of community is family. A down payment on a house is much more important than private school tuition which isn’t a necessary. [/quote]
