Soaring college tuition costs are leading to a surprising shift: parents are increasingly employed by universities to gain access to discounted or free tuition for their children. In some cases, parents can qualify after a few years of employment.
This trend is important because it highlights the rising cost of higher education and the creative ways parents are seeking to finance their children's education.
Parents' homeownership impacts their children's likelihood of becoming homeowners. Homeowner parents provide financial assistance and insights, creating opportunities for children to save and learn about homeownership. Conversely, those without homeowner parents face challenges due to limited financial capacity and knowledge. Cultural upbringing also influences a person's motivation to pursue homeownership, with those raised in cultures that value homeownership more likely to become homeowners.
