[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BIL and his family have lived with MIL for most of their marriage (15 years). They co-purchase real estate with her and she pays for their food and cell phone bills (that we know of). DH and I moved out of my parents after I paid off my student loans 10+ years ago. [/quote] Let's not make it into competition. I went to a boarding school at 15. Run away to US at 18. Worked below minimum wage job while attending college here (paying international rates). Didn't qualify for student loans. Bought my parents a home and a car right after graduation. Wasn't cheap as it was all in euros. I retired decades before most people think of retirement. I have great work ethic and money skill. My own kids are very independent and can go for months without seeing parents. "Failure to launch" is just not in the cards. Maybe the next generation.[/quote]
