[quote=Anonymous]My college senior is worried, because several of her friends that graduated this year are working crappy jobs while they look. We are not subsidizing our kid, and we will be glad to house her until she finds a job. My older kids did crappy jobs until grad school and stepped up to a better job. They are doing really well now, five and six years out. It really depends on the kid and the connections the kid has made. It also depends on luck. My DC found a job on linkedin that was a disaster, but they got recruited, also on linkedin, and found a great job a few months later. Kids who are really picky may have a longer wait for the right job. I think it's a terrible idea to subsidize your kid, though. I want my kids to be independent and know what it feels like to work hard to earn enough money to pay your bills. I told them from the get go that I'd pay for college, and then they were on their own. [/quote]
