[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is quite literally a rich person problem.[/quote] Or a not so rich person problem. I know a young man whose parents bought a small house near where he went to college and moved there, so he lived at home not in the dorm. Now, the details. This was kid #4, the youngest. The parents planned to sell their house that was too big (and too expensive after they both retired) for them when the last kid starts college. This is a true middle class family and the state school at full pay was a stretch. However, the school was in a LCOL area, so they realized that the cost of room and board would cover their housing expenses, and they didn’t mind living there, so a win-win. The guy graduated this year and moved where he got a job, the parents are still at that house for the foreseeable future. [/quote]
