Even with job and spouse millennials still getting money from parents

moneyEven well-to-do millennials are getting handouts from mom and dad.

A survey of 1,000 millennials ages 18-34 released Wednesday by Bank of America and USA TODAY found that “it’s not just the young, out-of-work millennials who are getting help from their parents or family members.” And “many respondents making more than $75,000 per year indicated they have received financial assistance as well” – and it’s not just to help them buy larger purchases like a home.

Millennials making $75,000 a year are taking money from their parents to pay for basics: One in four has had their parents pay for their groceries, and more than one in five has received money for clothing.
