No, I already know that's a thing. On one hand, I'm thankful for that... but I also know our minimum wage is WAY lower than it needs to be, and when my parents moved our cost of living increased by quite a lot, on TOP of the absurd amount we have to pay for health insurance that doesn't even cover our medical needs.
The financial class I'm situated in has to pay the highest taxes out of all the classes over here. I have no idea where that stands vs the rest of the world, but I have to say, it's very strange wondering whether or not we're going to have food to last until either of my parents' next paychecks.
Also it stresses me out so much that I'm still so heavily reliant on them financially. A lot of my commission money ends up going to helping them pay bills so we keep the damn roof over our heads.
