I'm about to move back in with mine for awhile because moving to the city didn't pan out for me as my income can't keep up with rising rents and I'll be damned if I pay over $1400/mo for a shoebox studio just to stay in the city.
Probably just stay with them long enough to save up a few months' rent before moving to a cheaper town where all the poors from my current town are getting pushed into, then I'll have independence again.

Haaaa tbh this might be me in the future. gently caress everything!

My older sister still lives at home with her enormous sailor moon anime collection. Last time I visited she had a 'stay home club' sticker on her door and was wearing one of these 'stay at home club' shirts

Moving the discussion along:
I'm almost 30, live with my GF and rent a big house. How many of you bought a house and how early?
I live in Portland and, until prices drop back to pre-Portlandia craze, I cannot buy a house.

Became a homeowner back in 2000 -- had a real job with a dependable income by then (actually since 1998 but I'd spent a little while saving up) and was getting sick of waiting for the real estate market to have its inevitable downturn (at the time prices had been rising for seven years; the downturn still has not come 16 years later). Was single at the time and bought an one-bedroom apartment within a short bicycle ride (or long walk) of my job. Lived there for five years before moving across the country to live with my now-wife; what I got when I sold the place was 70% more than I paid for it and I hadn't done poo poo to improve or even maintain it apart from painting the hallway a more cheerful colour. 11 years later I see similar apartments (in fact one that is identical to the one I had, same street, built exactly the same -- nicer inside, though) going for three times as much as what I paid in 2000. It's completely loving insane and young people today don't stand a chance unless they have help from their parents or something. (Or are able/willing to live somewhere rather less popular than close to a major city, I guess; rural prices aren't nearly as hosed up.)

Everything's coming up Milhouse!

I live at home because despite having a job that pays more than minimum wage, it's financially more responsible for me to live here and help with the mortgage and house repairs because I'll eventually own this house so I might as well stay here.

Also crippling social issues which prevent me from normal human interaction, but that's, like, part and parcel of modern thirty-somethings. And helping my aging parents. Standard stuff, really.

'Sup.

My dad suffered a massive stroke.

So I got a job that that pays fairly well, that is near where my parents live.

So I moved back in with my parents, since it's cheaper than paying rent. I get to live rent free living with my parents. I just have to help empty out my dad's colostomy bag and catheter before going to work, and after coming home from work. It was either that, or ship my dad off to a nursing home, which I objected to for moral reasons. I probably care more about my dad than some Philipina nurses.

It is a huge cockblocker living with my parents, but it's not like I was getting massive amounts of pussy before. I can at least act like a decent person and take care of my parents when they need some help.

Stayed at home till 18, then got outta there and went to University. gently caress, I don't understand people who stay with their parents past their teens. I wanted outta home by 15, like I don't come from a bad home but parents are just plain poo poo to live with. Or is that just me?

Reading this with the voice in your skull.
I'm a 30 year old single "man" with crippling debt and an intense distrust of roommates due to previous experiences living with friends.

I live with my dad and his wife. In the basement. Of my childhood home.

I am the proto-loser.

re: the cockblocking effect of returning to the nest; I used to wonder why Latino/Latina teens made out in city parks. Then one of my extended family roommates brought his girlfriend home to live with us for a year and now I get it.

In their defense they were pretty quiet as long as she was sober. Problems old as the hills.

There's nothing wrong with living with your parents though. This whole mentality that you have to move out the minute you turn 18 is created by the BANKERS who want everyone to take out a mortgage
