I'd like to ask another quick question. Are the following sentences acceptable, natural, or not natural? Thank you.

1. Having three generations in the same house can be advantageoue to a family.
2. Having three generations in the same house can bring some advantages to a family.

They are both grammatically correct and they are both natural.

Maoyueh, A better title would have been 'Can be advantageous', and for your earlier thread 'People buy/are buying lottery tickets'.

Extract from the Posting Guidelines:

'Thread titles should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.'
