My parents got help from my grandma (mom’s mom) on the down payment for their first house. It was 1972. Up until then we rented, and moved at least 3 times because 🤷🏻‍♀️ landlords. (My parents were ideal tenants who improved the places we rented)

I never thought of us as being poor, but we sure didn’t have much to spare either.

This was not generational wealth. Grandma T rented her apartment in Victoria. This was her decision to distribute the bit of money she had saved up as an LPN (she got her LPN license at 59) before she retired. She wanted to see her kids enjoy their “inheritance”.
