Can you elaborate about the savings taken away at 17?
Lots of shitty parents out there. It's so bad that before you get your first paycheck in boot camp, they march the entire division over to the Navy Federal Credit Union, and whatever Bank was on base, and made you open an account with one of them, your choice. I went with the Credit Union.
It's a parents thing, same happened to my sister.
Damn that's a ball ache. I didn't get any savings when I left home, but at least I didn't expect any. Just imagining the feeling of having that pulled away... ouch.
Did have parents spot my rent a couple of time; don't make me out to be ungrateful.
