I wanted to highlight comments but I really have no time at all to do anything

Take a scroll and gawk at the thousands of manchildren gushing at other manchildren and insisting to one another that being older than 25 with a roommate is not only normal, but a necessity

I moved out when I was 17 and it took me a long time to realize how a-typical that was. But it was so normal to me to have a job and be self-supporting.

No wonder I hate reddit.

I'm a NEET high school drop out and I moved out at age 26. It's pretty easy, I just pay the rent for my social housing flat with my NEETbux.

I know multiple people w philosophy degrees making 6 figures. Lots of jobs just require any bachelors and the school name matters more than the actual degree unless you’re applying to a technical role.

So I really fricked up in my 20s- dropped out twice, failed my state exam once, finally made it, then dropped out of my postgrad and went straight to the psychiatric hospital, followed by years of unemployment and a bit of alcoholism.

I STILL moved out before I hit 30. Redditors have no excuse.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

I cannot comprehend the flyovercels in that thread posting their rents and talking about how they are paying +$3000 to live in an apartment in some dump like Tennessee or Ohio. You can easily find way cheaper nice apartments of the same size in world class cities with better jobs, living standards, education and better everything else than where these redditors live except meth purity and mobility scooter availability. How bad do you have to be at apartment hunting to frick up that hard?

30, Reddit? Fricking 30?

21, ok, 25ish if you’re in NY/LA/SF etc., but otherwise, literally how? One could work part-time at like a buck above minimum wage and save up enough for a hefty down payment on a house in the TWELVE YEARS between becoming an adult and turning 30! And even that should be harder than getting enough together to rent a room or get a place with a friend (that, of course, would require having friends, so that’s out for many redditors)

Who on earth other than Italian mamas’ boys thinks this is relatable?

No point saying it again because there's some people out there who do not want to hear it and can't accept their own failures.

You get a job. You work hard at it and do well. You get a better job and do the same strategy. You continue learning new skills and pushing and improving yourself and then by the time you're in your thirties you should be earning loads and be moving into a bigger house.

It's hard to even relate to these people. Doing the above isn't hard and all the people IRL I know have also managed it. Redditors must be a subclass of loser who I don't interact with IRL so I find it impossible to understand exactly what they're doing wrong.

I don't even have a very good degree. What you do in your career is more important than what you do in uni.

Honestly carp the thread is not that bad, a lot of people in the post are rational and there aren't many soys - a couple of highlights:


:marsoyhype: not the consoles

https://old.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/xkrpev/people_who_moved_out_of_the_parents_house_before/ipfiwf0/?sort=controversial

living frugally. I couldn't afford consoles, I couldn't afford tv. even my cell was a used unit i got for cheap.

all I could afford was food, rent and basic utilities. But that leaves a lot of time for work. so I work. Its not fun.

Now I am better off, so I am enjoying myself with things I never had in my youth. so pardon this 40plus year old nearing 50 dude that still watches cartoons and plays videogames.


redditors being reasonable here

Got a job, rented

Dude, so many people on this thread are making the act of moving out of their parents to house before 30 as some Herculean effort, it's asinine. Step 1: Get a job; Step 2, not at Starbucks part time.

Reddit is made up of a few million literal children that have decided that this time it's different.

The world is ending, didn't you hear?

It's impossible to not be a complete loser! It's the governments fault! It's rich people's fault!

someone claims they don't have the money for it despite making over 200k

https://old.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/xkrpev/people_who_moved_out_of_the_parents_house_before/ipflxbc/?sort=controversial

I sold my soul to Wall Street

Ironically, I make over 200k and can barely afford the cheapest apartment I found

The housing market is being piledrived up the butt by institutional investors right now due to how stable it is amidst massive economic turmoil

You're some kind of insane if you can't live on 200k... I lived in Manhattan making less than 3k a month.

Are you serious ? It's called work go find a job work for crap pay save your money stop buying the latest iphone or anything apple for that matter . Don't go buy a brand new car buy a used car it doesn't need to be pretty. And save up 1st last and deposit plus 2 more months worth of rent then start the grind to find your first dump to live in. You should have done this by your 19th birthday if not sooner in most states you can start working at 16 even younger in some states. Thats not including under the table jobs working for old man farmer out in a field somewhere at 10 yrs old

Maybe this works in some places or just at some point in the past, but ive been working since i was 16 (26 now) and i am very frugal. I pay my bills (you know, car, phone, insurance.. the usual.) nothing fancy. And i really dont go and do anything cause things cost money. Despite this and saving every dollar i can, i still cant afford a small apartment in my area. Its insane.

Time for a new job

There are not enough of the higher paying jobs for everyone to keep increasing their compensation. Wages are pretty much uncoupled from inflation completely and stagnant isn't strong enough a word to describe them.

The 'get a better job' or 'we make our own luck' arguments fall apart when you see that is only possible for relatively few.

The system needs an overhaul. Big time.

Get a job, budget your money, find a cheap place to rent (maybe with roommates), sign the lease.

Target good scholarships --> work your butt off for them --> go to college;
