  I need to stop reading all of "your" nonsense...this article is directed at a certain segment of the population (middle-class types who live off their parents when they don't need to)...if that ain't you, then tough...but don't whine about her being a princess or what not, because she has advantages that you don't.
  
  
  There is a lesson in the article. Living independently is better than relying on parents. Not exactly a message to inspire the laughably silly venom I've read in the comments.

  This article speaks volumes about assumptions of the privileged middle-class. Apparently, if you're a fortune 500 exec whose company doesn't pay any taxes, like Westinghouse or AIG, you've made it. You are morally pure because you've figured out a way to shift your economic burdens to the tax-payer semi-legally. If you're a struggling musician who has to ask an uncle for the rent you may as well not show your mug in Serafino's circle---give her an Enron man every time.
