How old were you when you moved out of your parents?
I am 25 and moved back IN with my parents in January. Its only been 4 months and Im ready to move back out. They are great, I just need my privacy. "Saving money" is not worth it to me because Im not even saving money. So I make 2,000 gross a month plus a couple hundred with my side business. So net is about 1800 to 2k a month. The place I want to move into is 750 a month. I pay my college loan a month which is 120 and my car insurance which is 60. My phone bill I pay all at once (6 months in advance) to my dad which is 200 dollars. Anyway doing the math, do you think I would have a comfortable lifestyle living off about 100 extra bucks spending money per week? I usually just have my bank account full and spend how I chose without thinking much. Now I will have to be more careful which is good practice...back to normal LIFE you could say. No wonder I wasn't saving. Well tell me if you think it's a bit tight because people say you should make THREE times as much as you pay for rent, but I only make TWICE as much as what I pay for rent. Thanks in advance xox
Oh also I am afraid I will get lonely lol because there are no roommates, just me. I will miss my parents a little ! But here I am trying to get away from them for privacy reasons, I will get over that hump quickly right? Inviting guests over and what not? I've always lived with a friend, boyfriend or roommate. Never completely on my own. But I think it will be good for me. I am a single lady wanting to know I can rely on myself basically. Thanks for any tippers! Have a good day!
UPDATE I got the place!!
If this was your DD...what would you do?
