At what age...

I moved out when I was 21 iirc. Did that for a while with my ex till I lost my job and then shortly thereafter ended up in the icu for a bit that ended up putting me in great debt. After all that I finally got a job/payed off debt and am just getting ready to get my own place again. I'm in my late 20's now and am ashamed to still live at home. But hey, life threw me a nasty curveball that would cripple anyone that went through the same. I got through it and can now continue on with my life.

Imho, stay at home, finish school and continue to save.

I respect this post.

I see nothing to be ashamed of - doing anything else would seem silly. That's what I would do. Glad everything has worked out okayishly.
Once I get married we don't even want a house for a while - wanna travel around, maybe go to Europe for awhile if we can, then settle down in a few years for offspringage. I like apartments. They make me feel like stuff is going on.

I know I went about it the right way and took care of my shit, it's just that I didn't imagine i'd be that old dude in his parents basement fapping to ca.com all day. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

That would be fine till the old lady with a mustache from across the hall comes in needing some sugar.

I was 30 , I tried to move out a couple times in my early 20's and my mom kept bribing me with cars and money to stay at home. She was a single wealthy woman with a nice house that was lonely so I stayed. Old Italian families FTW. As I look back now it was the best move I ever made , I saved my money , didnt do laundry , ate free food and had a whole floor of the house to myself. I'm now 32 and married. I have 3 cars all paid off , a 120k house paid off and 50k in my kids college account. Stay as long as you can if you have it good at home , it will pay off later in life.

I didn't want to move out... I get along with my mother soo well. We always would talk about stuff late and just have fun. But.. I started to feel like I needed personal space. So I moved out and it is awesome!! First and foremost, when you put something down, it'll be in the same place when you get home!! Freaking cool. And if you want, walk around the entire place in your underwear... Who cares! Plus!! You can bring chicks home, turn in to a **** and it won't matter!! Love living single..

I have it pretty good at home. I can't deny that but...

a lot of the stuff in this post ^ I can relate to.

I get along with my parents great for the most part too. We have a few conflicting views on some big stuff but other than that we either agree or its something small and stupid.

I definitely like personal space and with my parents, you don't always get that. They like to know whats going on with me at all times in every aspect. I can't say thats a bad thing but its not always enjoyable either.

Then, of course there's the ability to bring chicks home whenever, leave whenever I want to and not have to tell anyone where I'm going or when I'll be back.

Right on! However... Parents don't just let you go. You'll still get the phone calls and txt about here your at and what your doing... But it's what parents do. Best of all, if **** starts to go south on you, you can get back in, fix **** and go back out. I had to once.. ****** but thank god! Never been back and now I never will.

Oh yea. I already know I'll still get those messages and calls. But the difference will be that, no matter what, I can still keep doing what ever I'm doing and not have to answer to them later.

I definitely like knowing that if things go south, I can go back home. I don't plan to, though; and with the way I'm budgeting things out, I should never have to even if I do hit a rough patch in my life.

i moved out at 16 and loved it. just visit home every so often. it was harder on my parents when i left then it was on me. i am back home now at 21. the only reason i am back home now is my parents need my help now so i am home helping them get back on their feet and helping them get healthy again. i wouldnt be anything without my parents so when they needed help i didnt hesitate. i quit my job. came home found a job here. been doing the best to help them the way they helped me. like i said i wouldnt be back if they didnt need me. i would say move out and enjoy it man.

I'd say try it. You'll have a year lease, see what it does. Hate it, move back. Maybe after a year it'll be clearer to you on all of this.
