Advice From Parents That Doesn't Hold Up
Redditors are spilling the most outdated “money tips” they’ve gotten from their parents that are no longer helpful.

• "It doesn’t matter what your degree is in, just get a degree and there will be plenty of jobs available when you graduate."
• "'Balance your checkbook.' I don't even have a checkbook. I've come to learn that some companies use pay cards for employees, and all employees' finances are managed through apps. You can see every transaction in real time, get spending alerts, and see what you have left to spend. The idea of writing everything down in a little book is just not how life works anymore."
• "My grandma told me I should always keep a quarter under the sole of my shoe in case I ever need to make a phone call."
• "My dad used to tell me to decide where I wanted to work, then buy your house near it. People no longer work for the same company for 50+ years, and often, where you work isn't totally up to you. Sometimes you take what you can get."
• "'Loyalty pays off in the end,' and 'Don’t change workplaces; try to stay at one place for your entire career.' Also, 'Only change positions if it’s a vertical move. Don’t change positions if it’s a lateral move.' None of this is true any longer."
• "Don’t spend more than your annual salary on a house."
