Current Events > I can't see myself spending at least $13k a year just to say I moved out of home

(+) Yeah! (+)

Doesn't seem like a wise decision. I have the money to move out.

I had to move out because my sister was insane and started pawning my stuff. Haven't had any support since then other then myself and some terrible relationships that took too much out of me. And people wonder why I'm anxious all the time. Hard doing everything yourself.

living at home gets a bad rap - some of the reasons are valid, like not being able to smash reliably, but at the end of the day, i'll take getting laid less often over shelling out rent every month

Typical asian culture the parents actually want you to stay home so you can help each other but new gen asians still want to move out

Because individualism is being shoved down everybody's throat these days. The ones that break off like that usually have guilt or regrets. If I could kill myself to be reincarnated with a family support system like that I'd do so in a heartbeat.

It isnt just to say lmfao

i mean good on you for being happy with your parents but it was absolutely worth the money for me to have independence

The freedom of living alone is worth any bill. I'd probably kill myself if I ever had to move back with my parents

I stayed home until 28 and moving out to have a place of your own is 1000% worth 13k

same

There is a bit more to it. For one, seeking independence while you still have parents who can back you up if needed is good practice for when it stops being an option.

Living on your own will teach you things you didn't know you weren't knowledgeable of. And no I don't just mean laundry.

Its worth it to me tbh.

Its not even just living with your parents but also living where your parents want to live

would have fucking sucked living in the damn suburbs in my early 20s instead of a five minute bus ride away from the heart of a downtown area

shit, Im in my 30s now and I still would hate living in the suburbs; being able to walk to breweries, concerts, restaurants, parks, etc isnt something I forsee wanting to give up for a long time if ever

If I lived at home another year or two, I could've bought a townhouse instead of a condo. Live with your family as long as it's comfortable.

I'm in my 30s and I don't care about any of that shit anymore. The city is where the money is so that's where I am
