Definitely a trend I see around me (Europe, 30 years old).
All of my friends able to buy got at least 30k - 50k from their parents.
Is it the same around you? How do you deal with this?
Also, some data from a few days back:

Have we just got to the point where anyone with a decent relationship with their parents that means that they help them out sometimes is now a “nepo baby”.
My parents lent me money for my mortgage deposit but I paid it back to them in installments alongside the mortgage. They only did that as I’d shown over thirty years of life I can be trusted with money and wouldn’t flake on the repayments to them, not because we’re rich.
Yup, we were the same way. And I’ll do the same for my kids.
My parents aren’t rich and neither am I, but I do want to help my kids out. I’m going to help them with school to, but I suppose that’s nepotism as well to OP.
I wonder what kind of world these people want, everyone thrown out to make their own way at 18?
