Are you as wealthy as your parents were at your age ?

I have a much higher income and net worth. My parents weren't doing poorly by any means, but I am just better off. I make more money now than my father ever did.

As for net worth, my father has a serious spending problem. I am richer at 42 than he is at 68 (retired last year).

Both parents went to college, my mother has a masters degree.

Now compared to my grandparents, no fricking way. They had way more wealth at my age, mainly b.c my grandmother inherited a bunch of it.
