[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think here in DC, a lot of these Union Market-shopping hipsters having their parents footing the bills. I went to college in DC and many of my classmates still, at 30+, have parents paying their rent so that they can "afford" to work at non-profits for not much money and use what they do make as play money for international trips. It's pretty common, actually. [/quote] 28 years old and I agree. And tbh, I don't think it's that bad of a plan. That's exactly how the rich get richer. I have several friends who's parents allowed them to take unpaid internships that have turned into prestigious, high paying jobs at Vogue, Conde Nast, etc. I also have a friend who's parents' bankrolled a fashion line for her which has been successful and has expanded into multiple cities. I understand the jealousy, because I've felt it myself. But I mean- it makes good sense. [/quote]
