My parents think since we went to college that we are making more than she ever did. I felt more secure while in college and I was broke than I do now

My parents bought their house for 25k in 1980. I paid 25k in rent for one year. They still don’t get it & refuse to get life insurance. I am scared☹️

Agreed, I also wonder why this feeling hasn’t made more parents want student loan reform/forgiveness. 😳

ABSOLUTELY. To be financially stable to cover my kids as a back up in the future, AND cover my parents elder expenses? HAH. Kids first, sorry.

My husband & I have 0 student loans, a mortage at 2.25% and we make $200k. 1 kid. Still drowning. Insanity.

I'm constantly told that this happened to them in the 80s. No valid concern, just comparison that they've been there done that. it's so different now.

I think what we will do (once we can actually buy a home again) is buy something with enough room for tiny homes or a basement for them to live in.

Yes I worry about not being able to be a safety net for my kids, and it’s even a struggle to get them through a staffed school successfully

Yes! I came home from Iraq at the end of 2008 to no jobs and the only reason I own my house now is because some old lady let us pay her mortgage.
