If you're cool with your parents and are actually saving up so you can have better conditions in the future, why not?

I'd do the same, if my parents weren't divorced and well... Instead I moved out early and spent a chit ton of money on it. Not really a hosting parties kind of person.

Just don't get trapped into it and end up like 35 or 40yo living with them, and making excuses on why you still do it.

So what? To each their own.

I personally don't spend much in cars or on a house. Just some on clothing and shoes (hnnng), and maybe a little too much on the whole gym, tan & "supps". But that's my thing, I don't drink or smoke, pretty much never eat out, since I'm "always" on diet or something. So I spend my money on chit that I like.
The hooker thing is just stupid, IMO. Just money thrown away, literally.

It's all about being FA and looking good.

I'm 24, would be too embarrassed to approach a woman if I still lived with my parents.

You're wasting money on aesthetics you can't even use brah srs

And a couple of hookers a month lol


The thing about moving out is that all of those things would be worse if I wanted to save anything. Because I live at home, I can still tuck away 60%+ of post-tax salary and live a GOAT lifestyle.

That 60% would instantly become 10% if I moved out and lived the same life....
Go nofap, that saves you atleast 300 a month on the hookers.

I see you are in Cardiff, plenty of investment properties for University students in your area and Bristol etc.

strong username to post content ratio.

and yes barring some extenuating circumstance like you were helping your aging parents in bad health or something, or you just had to file bankruptcy, or you had a devastating divorce and you're trying to get your life back together, it's lame.

You make this thread every week. Just stay at your parents home and save money and live your lonely existence. It's clear that there's no point for you to move out, you'd be FA either way. I know you really want someone to convince you otherwise, but if you can't convince yourself, no one can help you.

OP ignore the trolls. I'll tell you how it is as a bro.

In my culture, men always live with their parents, after a certain turning point when your parents get old and need to be taken care of, the son always helps them out anyway that he can. Unlike some other ethnicities that just put them in a nursing home to rot. Family is really important and you should all have each others backs.

Stay at home for as long as you can. So long as you contribute, have a job, and are saving that money for positive/ lucrative moves forward, then you're fine. In my opinion, all that freedom, living on your own stuff is BS. Establish rules in your household and you'll be fine. It's a more stupid idea to spend 30-60% of your income on paying rent when you don't have to and already have a place to stay.

Nothing honorable with living on your own, and spending most of your income on housing just to be cool, or be able to bring a girl back to your place. Save your money. Plan some big steps in the next few years.

So I know the marriage thing is a certainty, and hence so is the moving out!

Doesn't no fap have the opposite effect? I'd be MORE likely to bang hookers?

Thanks brah, this is probably the "wise" route in life. But I do understand the western yolo lifestyle too, i'm not judging it.

What is your culture, out of interest?

you people who live with your parents past 18-19 really miss out on what its like to live with no safety net which, in my opinion, prevents you from being the best version of yourself. Youd be amazed at the creativity and personal growth that can come from having no other options other than making it happen for yourself. Maybe you pick up skills that allow you get further in career in the future, so instead of retiring at 70 you retire at 50 balling. Just sayin

Lol, come on bro, this is the biggest broscience ever, or atleast the retirement part anyway.

You are WAY more likely to retire at 50 living at home and saving money than you are moving out and cucking away the majority of your post-tax salary on rent, bills, socialising and council tax!!!

Being on your own teaches you to pull your own weight. Plus it makes it 9,000 times easier to get your pickle in some vinegar, because most broads will be disgusted if you are still living at home at 25+.

Though if you have the opportunity to save up, work like a slave to save up money and buy a house outright so you don't have to worry about paying a mortgage for 30 years.

It's perfectly fine. For me, I want to move out once I'm done school and land a decent job. Living at home seriously effects my dating life. Way too uncomfortable bringing girls back home.

I want to be independent and if it doesn't work out moving back is always an option.

lol that's hard to say isn't it? maybe if you are too in your comfort zone you fail to develop certain personality traits or interpersonal skills that will benefit you later in life. I can only speak from experience. my family practically begged me to move home after college till I found a job etc. what did I do? move to cali with 2k to my name. now I am making money and liVing a life I love. I don't think i would have gotten here being comfortable

to each his own just offering different perspective!

Lmao at cucks saying moving out is the best possible thing for you. How on earth can you say this when you haven't experienced living with your parents? Both have advantages.

Anyway OP, I'm curious. What white middle class community has arranged marriages at 30? I have legit never heard of this.
fictional account.
closer to the lung.

Lol, a nice studio with bills and council tax and rent is more than half my savings per month. Buying furniture and other things would mean I don't save a penny for atleast 6 months
