A mother’s advice

A man in his 20s was griping (on Facebook) about needing to live with his parents to make ends meet so he could attend college  (because of minimum wage job, I assume).  His mother (who is still under 40) chimed in:

Spend your money on rent instead of video games and movies and you wouldn't be living with your parents. Just a little advice from your comment. People today seem to think that smartphones, cable and spending money are necessities. They live above their means then ask for a handout when they don't have a Turkey for Thanksgiving or enough high tech toys for the kids for Christmas.
