[quote=bearishgurl]yamashi, my kids are millenials but I don’t have any grandkids. My frame of reference are several families who are neighbors. All but one of them are renters and all have children. They range in age from 22-38 and have 2-7 kids and 3 of these families currently have more kids on the way. In all cases, one of the parents has never worked, which doesn’t bode well for being able to send any of these kids to college, but whatever …. There is no way in h@ll that I would ever have 2-3 kids in diapers at once and all too young to even attend 1st grade for the bulk of the day. In my mind, that’s “purposeful entrapment” but to each his/her own :-0.
The one family that owns their home bought it with in-laws on title because they could not qualify for it by themselves.[/quote]
BG not sure where you live, but I’m sorry that this is the sample of Millenial that you are exposed to. If I were in your position, I would feel the same way about our generation as you. Trust me, this is NOT a good representation.
Most people that I associate with either own their home, or rent and CHOOSE not to. They either have 1/2 kids, but don’t know many that have 3 and NONE that have more.
