Everyone knows a few of these. They are usually the ones complaining about negative hearing, high house prices and Asians buying all the good houses http://www.news.com.au/finance/mone...t/news-story/5ea4ae2c5a182757a0bf39ecf0446bda
Negative hearing? Is that where greedy landlords get wax benefits from the government to go millions of dollars into deaf?
OMG our closest friends have one of these. They have two sons. One has a law degree which he's just finished, and he hasn't been able to get a job - I don't have any problems with him still being at home, as he has no visible means of support. The older one, however, has been working for four years, has a permanent government job, has saved 200K for a house deposit (yes, that is 200K, not 20K!) and still hasn't found 'quite the right spot' to buy yet. To be fair, he's not spending money on stupid stuff; he just saves it....and saves it.... and saves it...... while not paying any board..... I could go on but I won't. Suffice to say I roll my eyes every time I think about it.
Reminds me of a news story a couple of years ago of some poor young dear complaining she couldnt afford to buy a house and had to rely on the bank of mum and dad to assist her to buy. She was a full time uni student with a small part time income, and she had her parents guarantee her first home which was in the story... a $1.1m terrace in the Sydney CBD. This was pre boom too.
probably studying 15th century French poetry too - and will then complain about not being able to get a job teach in her field.
They may be far smarter than many of us, one things for sure, they are probably single ! LOL....should also probably say, if you buy a PPOR it may not be wise to sleep on the streets
Terry, surely they found this a little awkward in certain circumstances over the last 35 years or so?
We have a neighbour like this. Never got his licence because "fossil fuels will run out". Never got a job because he wanted to "pursue his music career". Lives at home with his mum for the past 40 years we gave him spare key one morning to let a termite inspector in whilst I was at work. He lost the key within an hour. Some people aren't capable of functioning in this world!
Grrr this is one of my pet peev s. I will restrain myself and not rant To summarise. Parents....your job is to raise ADULTS (not to rais children). In my view, these "kid ultra" are proof of failed parenting Man up and learn to say no to your kids now before it is too late (if your "baby" is 55 and still living at home...just give up
my brother is 28 still living with the folks, has $100k+ in the bank. Paying my folks $50 a week board. Aside from work he just sits in his room on the computer, I dont think hes ever leaving. My parents didnt mind it as they are away every weekend and he looked after the dogs at home, but both dogs passed away last year.
