Living alone is better, do you want your food eaten? Your soap used? Your toothpaste used? Roommates just use all your shit

>>25739037
are those little things worth ~$700?

It adds up and it's annoying coming home and not having any food because your roommate had people over and they ate all your food.

I make $15.42 an hour working a set 29 hours a week at a college.

That's after taxes I take home around $1450 a month.

I said I'd have $300 a month AFTER rent and bills. If I were going for bait I wouldn't use such a fucking boring thread. I'd talk about eurocucks and muslims.

go for the roomies mate

save up that dosh and having roomies could help you un-robot yourself.

They'll be polite for the first few months. Then they'll start taking your food, maybe your clothes, using your razors ect.

Go for the roommates only if you can be sure to have your own bedroom with a door so you can be alone if you want.

Be firm about your boundaries, write up a roommate agreement and you should be OK

I'm an introvert and was very concerned about living with roommates. Honestly the few friends I made after HS were all roommates pretty much. As long as you're selective and try to find people you might get along with it can be better than living alone.

I don't think I'd mind if it was a good friend. but it does sound like it would get annoying after awhile.

>>25740342
was going to pass up this thread coz it seemed like shit, but fuck you, you made this with the intention of having a roommate, there was literally 0 reason to post this here because its obvious you're looking for advantages to having a room mate. fuck off

I do the living on my own with about 300 to spend, its pretty rough lad. Doable but rough, you'll be living paycheck to paycheck and there won't be much room for having "emergency" money. In my case I lost my smartphone and now imma have to wait a while to get another one and as of right now I have 20 bucks to use for the upcoming week which is honestly enough for food but god forbid I need to use it in some other way.

Get the roommates. The less you have to burden yourself, the better. As long as you guys set boundaries and shit right from the get-go, you won't have to worry about them getting all up in your stuff like most of these guys are trying to argue. Being on your own is great and all, but if you can actually tolerate people enough to even consider roommates, you should room with them. You'll have your own room, and you have a lot of cash to just fuck around with or save up. Fiscally speaking, it's the more sound option if you want to indulge in hobbies that cost money like gaming or drinking or reading books that aren't from the library. It's also the more sound option if you're looking to save up for something like a car or school or whatever the fuck else you want to pay for that you'd have a hard time saving for.
Also, that emergency money. You'll be fucking glad when something retarded happens to your shit, or you get hurt or sick, and you need a good amount of money right away. Plus, if you decide that you actually don't like living with roomies that much, or at least those particular people, then you just saved a ton of fucking money and you can just move the fuck out without much worry because you've got cash saved up.
