My kids are 23 and 28 and both live on their own. We gave them $1000 each. One to help move and the other to get tires for his car.




Oh sure set the high bar ... now I need to consider this. Couldn't be something like 50 bucks ...

Of course looking back my dad was giving us money for a number of years and with inflation ... arg I hate giving it away :-)


I told my (step)sons shortly after I met them at 9 and 14 I would make sure that they went to college [1]. They both decided not to go. I’ll gladly help them out a little if needed. It’s a lot cheaper.

[1] My wife and I met at a startup and worked together for over two years before we started dating. We got married 7 months later.


One can dream.

Thanks for sharing.
