Millenials were listening to post-crash horror stories for their formative adult years and I'm sure it's helped shape their view of investing.

She says she's almost 50/50 now which is a long way from where we started.At first she was frightened by my interest in real estate investing, but she knows I have been carefully and patiently learning as much as possible from the good folks on Bigger Pockets, reading RE books, and going to REI meetups.We have also started playing the Rich Dad board game "Cash Flow" and now she is using terms like "getting out of the rat race" and "financial freedom" The game has helped us to spend more quality time with the family too (young adults) .

An allowance is something you give your children, not your tenants (even though your adult tenants might behave childishly at times ) ...So best thing is to have tenants get utilities into their own name.

When I was a young adult, my father would tell me, "James, leave all your worries and problems to God, and he will lift up all your burdens".

I hate to come off as hating appreciation, but the beginning of my adult life was when the bubble popped so maybe that skewered my thought.

About a month ago after working weeks of 16 hour days and a 2 week trial of trying to put a guy in prison for sexual assault I began thinking about giving up my day job. 

In the months after my Dad died, I was even homeless for a couple of days (my Mom had died several years before my Dad, and my sister was younger, so I had no-one I could turn to).As an adult, I spent most of my twenties living paycheck to paycheck.

eugenicists is a tough one for me some people say we all deserve a chance at life ok some say its a womans choice, i lean more that way but after looking at the eugenicists moment its so confusing because minorities have abortions at a rate that out number people who are in a better socioeconomic class so looking at it that way it would seem to get rid of minority kids in greater proportion.It's a tough one and one that i cannot call so my default position is to leave it up to the mother but this also leads into a gray area, what if the mother is a minor what do the parents say and what if the child is being abused by the adults in their lifes.issues like this show that legislation can't be the cure all for all of our problems and law is sometimes too crude of a instrument where better moral character could reduce these problems, again i think education is the key, no society can be perfect and that's something everyone in that society have to live with.

That's an amusing correlation, Eddie: less sexual frustration = more world harmony....

I will differ again, in this respect.I purchase (tax sale properties) very cheaply and fix them up to provide "starter homes" for young adults that have proven themselves creditworthy.
