Yes. At age 25 I literally live in my single mom's unfinished basement.

I will be moving out without a roommate as soon as I have enough saved for a down payment. One or two weeks. Was waiting for someone to room with but I'm sick of their "I can't give you a date" excuse. Fuck these spiders and centipedes and fuck the 2 AM laundry loads. Fuck my stupid uneducated life that's going nowhere while other people my age are making tons of money and doing amazing things.

25 is still very young, nothing wrong with that.

A single month's rent in cheapest apartment around here would wipe out my check and then some.

And I have other bills to pay, so yes.

That said, I'm waiting on a new position to open up at my workplace and I'm one of the longest tenured and more successful people there. I'd essentially be a SME.

Assuming the virus doesn't kill me in a month from now I will have reached my "life goal" - 30, a wizard and making over $100k/yr, and living with my parents. Honestly have no idea what I will do with my life after that.

Why do you live with her then if you make over 100k?
As a single who earns half that and lives with his mother, helps with utility, property tax, and maintains the house. Why move out and waste money on rent if one gets along with said parent(s) and have a sub-30 minutes commute to work?

In CA (bay area) there are people who make over 100k who live in their cars, because rent is so expensive it doesn't make sense, even at that income level, to waste it on renting an apartment.

$3000 a month towards rent, when you make $100k is still a large portion of your total income. After taxes (and many have student loans as well), your talkiig about 60k or so (between state and fed), and if you have student loans it's less then 50k left.

So 4k a month basically after taxes, and rent + utilities + cable etc is $3000+

Can't blame people for not wasting that much money if they don't have to.

Thank you for that LinkPizza. I failed to read everything entirely before questioning why MICHALECOLE would ask that.

Did you meant to quote MICHALECOLE? I do believe renting is a waste of money unless one really needs to move out/rent.

Yeah I meant to quote MICHALECOLE, it used to quote all the previous people in a post...but I guess it just does the last now? That is weird. I wanted to quote the discussion.

Yeah. I think thats why he asked. That being said, I also agree with you. Personally, if I could live at home and save money, I would. But Im in another state, so it cant work for me. But my brother still lives at home to help our mom with rent and hes 21. My sister might not stay, but only because she might be going to an out of state college. So....

Not me, and never have. My family home didn't have a basement (it was an upper-level maisonette), & I moved out when I was 21. Spent 6 months living with my sister, then 2 years in shared housing, a few more months with a cousin while I tried to find somewhere else away from the landlady from hell, and finally got an apartment of my own 10 years ago. It's not the same one I live in now - that one was demolished when the area was regenerated some years back - but I can definitively say that I have never lived in anyone's basement (or cellar as we're more likely to call them here), let alone my parents'.
