Family-First

'Mom's house first'

Mortgage · Siblings · Generational

You're paying off your parents' house before you buy a coffee. Lo sabemos.

What this archetype looks like

Your first thought would be family. You would want parents, siblings or future kids to be safer. The good part is loyalty and a long-term view. The hard part is that family money can get messy fast: gifts become expectations, loans never end, and people may treat you differently. What helps is setting limits early, writing down agreements and saving some money for your own life too. Taking care of yourself is part of making the help last.
