if he was a pain, his dad would kick him out for free and keep that million dollar ticket for himself.

Very common for young couples to live with parents and save for a down-payment on a home.

Most parents are willing to help their children out. I think the couple had common sense priorities vs a spend spend spend philosophy and going into debt.

* Aaron must be a pain if he is being paid to hightail it out of the basement. Kinda like some under performing CEO'S who are given golden parachutes to leave the company.Just saying..

What a wonderful gift from father to son! So loving and unselfish. This article made me smile. I hope Dad finds another winning ticket that he can use to retire from playing the lottery. LOVE IT

Buying a home, especially if he lives near DC, is a great investment. That home will be worth at least 4 or 5 times the original value in 30 years.

Buying a home now, allows the couple to start their retirement investing now and to max out those contributions. A smart move.

How can you pass up 1000.00 a week for life for a lousy 460k lump sum payment when you have a good 50 years of life left hopefully. So 700.00 (after taxes) for 50 years comes to 36400.00 a year x 50 comes to 1,820,000.00.
