go do what you want to do in life. You don't have to wait until you are old to do it!!

Of course ... just don't ask me to help pay your way when you're old, decrepit, and broke after I worked my ass off for 40+ years.

"just don't ask me to help pay your way when you're old, decrepit, and broke after I worked my ass off for 40+ years."

Nowhere in the article does it say they are planning on doing that or taking Daddy's money to fund their lifestyle. Those things I'm with you and against. However, taking a year off and having fun in life (before life's responsibilities are taken on) is not a bad thing.
