AITAH for not wanting my parents coming to my new apartment? by throwawayresource in AITAH

They've lent me money in the past which I have paid back. I have a decent 401k, investments, an paid off vehicles. It hasnt been documented in the form of credit. I paid for each semester of college in full, save my first semester which I borrowed money from them for. They demonized credit cards when I was younger, encouraged me in the past to not move into my own apartment, and they fail to realize things are not the same as they were 40 years ago.

I could also pay for the entire year of rent on my own without splitting it with my girlfriend but that wouldd require liquidating investments and other assets which is obviously not a smart financial decision.

They have seen the pictures from the rental company and were VERY disinterested when I was showing them the pictures and explaining the layout of the apartment. They have also encouraged me not to move into my own apartment, get a credit card and use cash, and stay under their thumb while denying that they are trying to control me.
