Damn that was nice of your parents

You're even luckier that they knew somebody in your field to get you a job.

OP is proof that rich parents are the true golden ticket in life

2.I waited until i was 22 to start investing,was making 70k a year when i was 19, and didn't have to pay rent as i lived with my cousins while i was working.
3.I didn't go into something like nursing as a 4 year program could have landed me a 200k year job if i worked further north.

Investing and holding in blue chips stocks starting in 2013, combined with high wage and little debt. Parents loaned 40k for so i could buy land, where i bought and moved a trailer on it in cash. and then i liquidated some investments to purchase another piece of real estate over seas.

So at 26, did you fully own a home in Canada or in India.

I think you have some explaining to do if you are gonna make claims like that

Thanks for having the bravery to share your story with the misc- at least others can learn from your situation.

A salutary lesson to the rest of you miscers- work hard and get a degree or you will be spending your prime years living in a trailer and relying on your parents generosity for survival.

All ribbing aside I am fuking bewildered to hear they pay nurses such an obscene amount in Canada. Surprised everyone isn't a nurse. That's crazy.

The one in India I owned at 16; when my grandfather and his brother passed away.

My dad's uncle had no kids, so my dad got the home and now it's mine.

I can't predict the future, but if i told 15 year old me what i'd be up too at 27, i would be pretty hyped.

lots of good paying jobs in Canada you just have to be willing to living more remotely. I'm sure in the older days it would have been hard, but lettuce beef cereal with high speed internet and smart phones, its walk a the park.

Here the ownership story in India:

The house actually belonged to my great-grandfather.
My grandfather grew up there with his brother and 2 sisters
The sisters moved out.
The 2 men lived with their wives but the wives couldn't get along
They ended up separating the house
My dad inherited both parts; because his uncle had no kids.
Which now belongs to me...my dad doesnt want it.

No one's profiting; it's been a family home for over 100 years. And I want to keep it that way.

You can't talk, needed a 43k interest free loan from your parents to buy land so you can use your own money on personal investments. Talk about profiting off your parent's generosity then passing it off like they didn't have a major role in where you are today.

Dear lord I shudder to think what abuses you must have endured at 15 to make your current lot in life seem tolerable.

I guess it's like that old saying about the guy feeling blue about having no shoes, until he met the guy with no feet.

Misc can we start some kind of kickstarter or something to help out op, and others in need?

Lol. I'm also 27, still have 8k in student loan debt, and currently in school to become a nurse practitioner (+30k more in loans). Totally happy with where I am in life... People can make fun of OP all they want, or tell me I'm running on poverty time, but there will always be someone better off and someone worse off than you are...
