Moving out 10 kilometres down the road - pointless. Stay with your parents.

You should try and get out of your hometown for a while at least though. Life exists outside of the bubble, let me tell ya. Don't get caught because the comforts of home make time fly by.

>>1836731 (OP)
>>1836739, and >>1836742 are right. Im currently struggling with this issue myself. Im 22 and have spent 4 years living with my parents. 3 of those years were for health reasons, but last year I couldve finally said enough and moved out. I just got in an argument with my dad over all of this, and he wants me to be under their supervision and stuff, but I just want to be left alone and possibly start over in another city, even if it means I have to start from nothing. But once again I broke down and folded, because im not used to roughing it in the real world, and im to much of a pussy to actually put my foot down
But also, its hard to face any of your peers when you live with your parents. Thats one of the big reasons I dont go out, its hard to say that youre living with your parents. Even just telling people that you live in a shitty studio apartment in the middle of the ghetto will get you more respect than telling them you live with your parents. But the worst are the old people, especially family friends and relatives who give you that fucking look and get on your case for getting your life under way. Its demeaning and humiliating when they just grind away at what little self esteem you have left.

I did this until 26 and deeply regretted it. Just moved out and it was easily the best decision of my entire life. Could have done it a year ago but it would have been strenuous and wanted to give myself financial breathing room. Don't get me wrong moving itself was hard I nearly wanted to strangle the moving company with their 1001 rules. I have excellent credit and nabbed a 5 bed 3 bath house in a great area. I can pay for it completely on my own if I wanted to but within a couple of months I'll have renters and can essentially retire.

You need to do this right now or else you will be stuck in the cycle forever, of being too scared to move out but never being able to actually go do it. It's so fucking chill just a week in.

Make a plan. Wait for a good sale or opportunity. Make sure the inspection is done properly. That's it. For me the last little thing to push me over the edge was a local thrift store chain had a 50% off sale on everything so I furnished the entire house minus the bedrooms for $250. Just fucking do it.

Maybe its just where I live but a lot of people I know in college don't look wrongly at a person who still lives with their parents. It might be because I live in a major city and people know how expensive it is but the only people I know that actually look negatively at people who haven't moved out are high schoolers who haven't had a taste of the real world yet.
>>
Pretty much never.

Buy a nice property and rent it out as a holiday home.

Then just lie to people that you "own your own place" and if you want to take someone "home" just pretend you are a very busy person while scheduling it around the bookings.

Literally the only reasons I can think of to move out are social status and being able to bring sluts home.

Dunno where you live but in the UK they will take your house to pay for care fees in your old age. If you don't have money/assets then the government will pay for it instead. So that might not be such a good idea.

Live with your parents until you retire at 30 because of all the money you saved.

Bonus points if your parents are old you can keep living with them past 30 to care for them.

People underestimate living with parents. I can dip and take a vacation any time. I can travel 5-8 times a year and still save more money than my coworkers.

This might mean a 2nd job, roommates, and walk/bike/bus everywhere

I have goals beyond just moving out. Living at home at 27 sucks, but I should be in a good position later this year
>no debt
>income sufficient to pay the bills, have some fun, and save
>a vehicle owned outright
>3 months of living expenses in savings
>down payment and closing costs for a duplex
>additional funds to cover the costs of being a landlord

I just need to save for 3 more months. The wait is killing me.

Depends what kind of person you are.

Good ol' US of A. They're welcome to try and come take my land.
This whole concept of moving out and buying a (((house))) when you become financially secure is a scam. This last century has been an anomaly in that the immediate family is breaking up and moving away. Pre-WWI it was the norm to live with your parents and raise your own children in the same home. I'll take my chances socially and financially with them.

26 year old accountant still at home here.

My only expenses are car related, my cell phone and I cover the cable and water bill for my parents. I dump most of my wage bucks into the stock market.

Btw, I'm an only child so I'll eventually inherit my parents' house.

If you are going to school, as long as you are going to school it is justifiable

If you are not going to school but have a job and have no debt, and are over the age of 22, it is not really justifiable

Only times I've been away are 4 years I was living in a college campus, after which I moved back in, then lived a year alone.

That was a waste of money. Ended up needing to work 2 weeks just to pay the rent, which felt like a waste of money, so I just moved back in.

Also to add to that because it wasn't really constructive, I've traveled to north america a few times and it seems like a ton of people never move out before 28 or shit like that, while in western Europe only muslims do that shit. I even remember a french "funny" movie about a 28 year old still living with his parents. That's laughable for most people here and desu when I talked to ppl in NA who were like 25 and shit like that and didn't move out, some of them had high responsibility jobs or a phd and still were pretty immature for their age. I think it really depends but if it's just gonna set you back a few % then it's worth it. You'll most likely grow up faster (aka become wiser) and not end up a 30 years old manchild.

Really, since I know southern euros stay with their parents a lot. I would say it's the opposite here-plenty of boomers still pushing the "out at 18" meme.

I can confirm the phd thing; there's a guy who's super high up at my company who lives with his parents. He basically works nonstop.

>>1838740
It's harder to meet anyone, but especially if you're wagecucking 10 or 11 hours a day. Been working at Big 4 and life basically devolves into work, come home, eat, vidya for a bit, sleep repeat.

You get absorbed enough in work that you don't think about not talking to anyone except people and work and senpai for weeks on end, but contemplating it makes it depressing.

When your career and finances are stable, its time to leave the nest. Otherwise its in your mid 20's. A 25 year old living at home is a little weird, but not unheard of. A 30 year old living at home better have a disabled parent they take care of, or they are a social pariah.
>>
>>1836731
when they begin to realize net savings because you are living with them. at that point the justification flips and they become your responsibility. if that never happens it means that you are a failure and, because they are the most influential forces in your life, they are failures as well. don't turn two generations into failures, anon. contribute to the family.

I'm 25 making $80k and I live at home.

I look at apartments to keep an eye on the market but I would literally be paying $2000 a month just to say that I don't live with my parents.

Feels good investing all that money instead. I pay them $700 rent but they said they'll lend it back to me to make a down payment if I ever buy a house. Currently waiting for the housing bubble to burst.

> but how will you get laid if you live with your parents?
